SFP Slots

The Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP) transceiver slots are shared with

four of the RJ-45 ports (ports 21-24 for the SMC8724ML3 and ports

45-48 for the SMC8748ML3). In its default configuration, if an SFP

transceiver (purchased separately) is installed in a slot and has a valid link

on its port, the associated RJ-45 port is disabled and cannot be used. The

switch can also be configured to force the use of an RJ-45 port or SFP slot,

as required.

Each unit includes two stacking ports that provide a 40 Gbps high-speed

serial stack backplane connection. Up to eight SMC8724ML3 or

SMC8748ML3 switches can be connected together using optional stacking

cables. Note that the 24-port and 48-port switches can be mixed in the

same stack. The Stack Master button enables one switch in the stack to be

selected as the Master.
