For the sake of simplicity, the basic switch module with various plugged in
media modules will be referred to as MICE in this document.
The MS20-... device variants are modular switches with up to 8, 16 or
24 * 10/100 Mbit/s Ethernet ports. You can choose the media for the ports
via the media modules.
The MS30-... device variants are modular switches with up to 8, 16 or
24 * 10/100 Mbit/s Ethernet ports and up to 2 additional Gigabit ports
(1000 Mbit/s Ethernet). You can choose the media for the ports via the
media modules.
The basic module of the MS20/MS30 contains all the function units, such as:
switch function, management function, redundancy function, display control,
voltage connection, management connection, adjustable controls, slots for
media modules.
