3.1.3 Dual Personality Interfaces
A combo port is for uplink connections. It consists of a 10 Gigabit Ethernet port for Ethernet connection,
and a SFP+ transceiver slot for fiber connection. The fiber connection takes priority if the corresponding
Gigabit port is also connected.
• 100 Mbps/1 Gbps/2.5 Gbps/5 Gbps/10 Gbps – Connect these ports to high-bandwidth backbone
network Ethernet switches using Category 5e/6/6a/7 copper cables.
• Transceiver Slots – Use SFP/SFP+ transceivers in these slots for connections to backbone Ethernet
switches.

3.1.4 Management Port
The 1000Base-T Ethernet MGMT (management) port is used for local management. Connect directly to
this port using an Ethernet cable. You can configure the Switch through Telnet or the Web Configurator.
The default IP address of the management port is 192.168.0.1 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0.
3.1.5 Console Port
This console port is for troubleshooting only. With instructions from customer support, connect the male 9-
pin end of the RS-232 console cable to the console port of the Switch. Connect the female end to a
serial port (COM1, COM2 or other COM port) of your computer. You can use a computer with terminal
emulation software configured to the following parameters:
• VT100 terminal emulation
• 115200 bps
• No parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit
• No flow control
3.2 Rear Panel
The following figures show the rear panels of the Switch. The rear panels contain:
• Two AC power receptacles (A and B)
