Can a Buffalo BS-MP2008 translate between Jumbo Frames / MTU9000 and standard frames / MTU1500?

Hi, sorry I am not an export in networking, but have to operate a small office IT with mixed requirements.

I have some Linux servers, a Synology NAS and different kind of clients (Macs, PCs, ... ) with different networking requirements.

One (soon two) desktops are used for video editing. Hence, they would benefit utilizing jumbo frames between them and the NAS for sure.

As I can configure our 10Gbit switch Buffalo BS-MP2008 on every port to use or not to use jumbo frames, I wonder if it is capable to translate between MTU9000 and MTU1500. To my understanding, this would have to be the case. But I am not sure.

Thanks for your input!
