Communication ports
The device features four Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) transceiver sockets for
uplink communications, as well as six slots for field-replaceable media modules.
Media modules can be used to expand and customize the capabilities of the device
to suit specific applications. A variety of modules are available, each featuring a
specific type of communication port: copper Ethernet, fiber optic Ethernet, and SFP.
Specialized media modules are also available.
The device has the ability to analyze SFP types and port hardware capabilities at
runtime.
The status of each communication port is indicated on the status panel. For more
information, refer to "Status panel" (Page 7).
Use RUGGEDCOM ROS to determine which ports are equipped on the device. For
