corresponding to the port to be sure that the connection is valid.
The 1000BASE-SX, 1000BASE-LX and 1000BASE-ZX fiber optic ports
operate at 1 Gbps full duplex. All of these SFP modules also support
auto-negotiation of flow control. The maximum length for fiber optic
cable depends on the fiber type as listed under "1000 Mbps Gigabit
Ethernet Cable Lengths" on page 4-8.
Connectivity Rules
When adding hubs (repeaters) to your network, please follow the
connectivity rules listed in the manuals for these products. However,
note that because switches break up the path for connected devices into
separate collision domains, you should not include the switch or connected
cabling in your calculations for cascade length involving other devices.
