I didn't find it in the data sheet, so let me ask you a question.
What are the supported connection speeds for the 10GBase-T ports on the C1300-16XTS?
I don't have a description, so I feel like it's not a multi-giga.
I want to know if 100M and 1G are supported in addition to 10G.
※ Some distributors may describe it as Multigiga.
Some are listed as 10GBase-T, so it is confusing in various places.
If possible, it would be very helpful to introduce evidence materials as well.
Thank you very much.

The document "Port Type" below is applicable, and it seems to be different for each port type.
Note: This is the information that was checked on a document-based basis because I don't have an actual device.

Thank you very much for your professor.
Since the C1300-16XTS metal 10G port is not a combo, the following applies:
> Copper Ports—Regular, not Combo, support the following values: 10M, 100M, 1000M, 2500M (type: Copper) and 10G.
I understand that 10M, 100M, 1G, 2.5G, and 10G support speeds.
We appreciate your presentation of evidence!

You're correct, datasheet doesn't make clear the capabilities of their copper 10g ports.
I doubt they are full mgig ports, as that's a feature often touted.
As the fiber ports are SFP+, they should support gig and 10g. So, if the copper ports are multi speed, at all, they too might be gig/10g.
