45 ports
Your switch comes with auto-negotiating, auto-crossover
ports. Depending on the model, these ports are either fast
Ethernet (10/100 Mbps) or Gigabit (10/100/1000 Mbps) ports.
Auto-negotiating ports can detect the speed of incoming
transmissions and allow either half duplex transfer mode (10/
100 Mbps only) or full duplex mode. Auto-crossover means
that you can connect the switch to a computer or hub using
either a straight-through or a crossover Ethernet cable.
