many collisions and packet drop issue be happen aoutonegotiation division between two device
aoutonegotiation being between two device each device check speed dublex and mdi mode,freame size etc.
so if make set on two port for example 100-full very good
my advice
now you must be set mdi mode on swithc port
if you have patch ceble strain through cable (standart 568 A or B cable)
take switch port mdix mode not to leave auto
for example
switch(eth-14)# mdix-mode mdix [enter]
