Installing Equipment

You can mount this device into a standard 19-inch equipment rack. You can center- or front-mount the device in a rack.
Optional rack-mounting brackets are supplied with the device. Otherwise the devise can be placed on a flat shelf with the
adhesive feet applied to the bottom of the device.

Network Connections

1000Base-T Ports

The switch contains 24 1000BASE-T RJ45 ports. All RJ45 ports support automatic MDI/MDI-X operation, auto-negotiation
and IEEE 802.3x auto-negotiation of flow control, so the optimum data rate and transmission can be selected
automatically.

SFP Transceiver Slots

The S243 supports 2 Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP+) transceiver. In the default configuration, if an SFP transceiver
(purchased separately) is installed in a slot and has a valid link on the port, the associated RJ45 port is disabled. The
following table shows a list of transceiver types which have been tested with the switch. Please contact i3 International
Tech Support if you have any questions with the SFP transceivers.
The SFP slots support the following optional SFP Transceiver Types
SFP.LC
SFP.LCM2
SFP.LC.S10
SFP.LC.S30
SFP.LC.S50
SFP.L5.S50
SFP.BL5.S10
SFP.BL3.S10
SFP.BL5.S20
SFP.BL3.S20
SFP.FLC
SFP.FLC.S20

Installing an Optional SFP Transceiver

It is possible to install or remove a mini-GBIC SF from a mini-GBIC slot without having to power off the switch. The mini-
GBIC slots are shared with the two 10/ 100/ 1000Base-T RJ-45 ports. If a mini-GBIC is installed in a slot, the associated
RJ45 port is disabled and cannot be used and operate only at full duplex. Half duplex operation is not supported. Ensure
the network cable is NOT connected when you install or remove a mini-GBIC.
