What is the autonegociation you're talking about here ? I never owned a POE switch, I, of course, don't need all the port, it was the cheapest POE switch I could find near me, everything else is like 250€ or more, or 150 for unmanagable. It won't be ON often for the moment, I just wanted a POE switch to have fun with wifi AP and in the futur IP cameras!
Autonegotiation allows two devices, such as switches or network interface cards, to automatically exchange information about their capabilities and configure the best possible connection settings, like speed and duplex mode. This enables devices to establish a link with optimal settings for both. Without it, this needs to be done manually
That switch does it with CDP.
Pretty sure it also supports lldp
