[Wireless Router] RT-AX89X - Common FAQs for using 10Gbps port

The RT-AX89X comes with two 10G ports, one Base-T and one SFP+ port, which means both fiber and copper 10G connections are supported. Capture ISP advertised speeds or use your own 10G LAN network between PCs and NAS.

1. The SFP+ interface only operates at 10Gbps speed and is not compatible with the 1 Gigabit data rate.

2. Can the 10G Base-T RJ45 be configured as a WAN port or a LAN port?

Yes.

3. For the 10G Base-T RJ45 port, can it negotiate with devices operating at not only 10G, but also 1G, 2.5G and 5G?

Well, to be exact it interacts with the cable. Communication with devices rely more on network protocols.

4. If I connect a 1G cable modem to the 10G Base-T RJ45 port configured as a WAN port, will it function at 1G?

Yes.

5. If I connect a 2.5G cable modem to the 10G Base-T RJ45 port configured as a WAN port, will it function at 2.5G?

Yes.
