Installing An Optional Ethernet Expansion Module - Enterasys Matrix E1 1G587-09 Installation Manual

CAUTION: The expansion modules are NOT hot-swappable. The switch must be
powered down before the expansion modules are installed or removed. Hot-swapping
the expansion modules while the 1G58x-09 is powered on could cause the device to
stop forwarding frames.
The 1G58x-09 has three expansion slots for optional Ethernet expansion modules. At the time of
this printing, five Ethernet expansion module options were available for the 1G58x-09. Refer to
your release notes for the latest available Ethernet expansion modules.
The five optional Ethernet expansion modules include the following:
•
1H-16TX, which provides 16 fixed, 10/100BASE-TX port uplinks via twisted pair RJ45
connections.
•
1H-8FX, which provides 8 fixed, 100BASE-FX port uplinks via MT-RJ fiber-optic connections.
•
1G-2TX, which provides 2 fixed, 10/100/1000BASE-TX Gigabit Ethernet port uplinks via
twisted pair RJ45 connections.
•
1G-2GBIC, which provides 2 expansion slots for optional GBICs (GBICs have 1 SC connector).
•
1G-2MGBIC, which provides 2 expansion slots for optional Mini-GBICs (Mini-GBICs can
have one MT-RJ, LC, or RJ45 connector).
