Alpine 3800 Series I/O Modules

The GM-16T module supports distances of up to 100 meters over CAT 5 cabling.
Each of the 16 ports in the GM-16T
maximum module throughput of 4 Gigabits to the Alpine backplane. When a GM-16T
an Alpine 3808, and five or more ports of ports 1 through 8 or ports 9 through 16 are simultaneously
forwarding unusually high rates of small, uniformly sized packets (for example, 64 Byte), the
bandwidth through each port can be lower than the expected minimum of 250 Mbps.
When you install and configure a GM-16T
port-based load-sharing (link-aggregation) algorithm when the share has more than four ports because
traffic coming from the GM-16T
the share. Load-sharing using other load balancing algorithms can have up to eight links.
LEDs

The GM-16T module has the following LEDs:
• Module status
• Port status
