4 10/100/1000Base-T ports + 2 100FX/Gigabit SFP slots

3.1. Connectors

The Switch utilizes ports with copper and SFP fiber port connectors functioning under
Ethernet/Fast Ethernet/Gigabit Ethernet standards.
10/100/1000Base-T Ports
The 10/100/1000Base-T ports support network speeds of 10Mbps, 100Mbps or
1000Mbps, and can operate in half- and full-duplex transfer modes. These ports also offer
automatic MDI/MDI-X crossover detection that gives true "plug-n-play" capability – just
plug the network cables into the ports and the ports will adjust according to the end-node
devices. The following are recommended cabling for the RJ45 connectors: (1) 10Mbps –
Cat 3 or better; (2) 100/1000Mbps – Cat 5e or better.
SFP Slots for SFP modules
The two SFP slots are designed to 100/Gigabit SFP modules that support network speed
of 100/1000Mbps.
Installing the SFP modules and Fiber Cable
1. Slide the selected SFP module into the selected SFP slot (Make sure the SFP
module is aligned correctly with the inside of the slot)
2. Insert and slide the module into the SFP slot until it clicks into place
3. Remove any rubber plugs that may be present in the SFP module's mouth
4. Align the fiber cable's connector with the SFP module's mouth and insert the
connector
5. Slide the connector in until a click is heard
