The Prisma FiberLinX Gigabit module ships from the factory with Auto-Negotiation 
enabled on the twisted-pair ports.  In this mode, the ports negotiate for speed and 
duplex. 

The twisted-pair ports on the Prisma FiberLinX Gigabit module auto-negotiate for 
speed and duplex mode. This device also provides the option of selectively 
advertising or forcing the speed and duplex mode. The fiber port operates at 1000 
Mbps Full-Duplex.  Configure features on twisted-pair ports via the management 
software. Refer to the Help file for configuration information.   

The twisted-pair ports on the Prisma FiberLinX Gigabit module can also be manually 
set for 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps or 1000 Mbps operation and for Half- or Full-Duplex (i.e. 
10 Mbps Full-Duplex, 10 Mbps Half-Duplex, 100 Mbps Full-Duplex, etc.).
