14D-Link DFE-530TX+ User Manual
Section 2 - Installation
The DFE-530TX+ implements IEEE 802.3x compliant flow control for full-duplex, which provides traffic management
functions for full-duplex operation. Flow control allows for enhanced full-duplex operation with switches. When operating
at full-duplex (requiring a direct connection to a switch) and the switch’s data buffer is about to overflow, a Pause frame
will be transmitted to the DFE-530TX+.The ensuing idle time keeps the buffer from overflowing and prevents data
from being lost. This enhancement can improve network throughput, avoid collisions and prevent lost data, helping the
network achieve optimal performance.
