The other twelve ports on GSM7312 can be used with either UTP (RJ45) or SFP (fiber) type cable.

However, both port types cannot be used at the same time. The switch will detect the port in use

The SFP bay accommodates a standard SFP module which has an SC connector that is compatible with

the IEEE 802.3z 1000BASE-SX standard.
