The 2E43-51 also has two slots (5 and 6) for optional 10/100 Fast
Ethernet Interface Modules, and another slot for an optional High Speed
Interface Module (HSIM).
The device can switch each Ethernet network (ENET 1 through ENET 4)
to one another, to the optional interface modules in slots 5 and 6, and to
the HSIM slot. The optional Fast Ethernet Interface Modules provide
uplinks to 100BASE-TX or 100BASE-FX Fast Ethernet networks. The
HSIMs provide additional connectivity to various networking
technologies such as Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM), Fiber
Distributed Data Interface (FDDI), and Wide Area Network (WAN).
The 2E43-51 may be used as a tabletop unit or can be installed in a
standard 19-inch rack using the supplied rack mounting hardware.
The 2E43-51 device has one universal ac power supply with automatic
voltage sensing that allows operation using 100–125 or 200–240 Vac,
50/60 Hz.
