ECS4120-52T: Ports 49-52 (10G SFP+) support 1000sfp
ECS4120-28T/P: Ports 25-28 (10G SFP+) support 1000sfp
ECS4120-28F/28F-I: Ports 25-28 (10G SFP+) support 1000sfp
Ports 1-24 (1000BASE SFP) support 1000sfp or 100fx

Command Usage
◆ 1000BASE-T does not support forced mode. Auto-negotiation should always be
used to establish a connection over any 1000BASE-T port or trunk.
◆ The 10GBASE-SFP+ transceivers do not support auto-negotiation. Forced mode
should always be used to establish a connection over any 10GBASE-SFP port or
trunk.
◆ When auto-negotiation is enabled
11
the switch will negotiate the best settings
for a link based on the capabilities command. When autonegotiation is
disabled, you must manually specify the link attributes with the speed-duplex
and flowcontrol commands.
11. Support for auto-negotiation depends on transceiver type, such as 1G SFP.
