The console port allows you to connect a terminal and perform remote or
local out-of-band management. The console port uses standard null
modem cable and is set to auto-baud, 8 data bits, no parity and 1 stop
bit.
You can use this slot to install an Expansion Module; for example, a
100BASE-FX Module that provides an additional high-speed link, or a
Matrix Module that provides four matrix ports for stacking Switch units
together. 3Com provides a range of Expansion Modules; contact your
supplier for availability. For more information about Matrix Modules, see
"Stacking Units"
on
When an Expansion Module is not installed, ensure the blanking plate is
secured in place.
The matrix port allows you to:
Stack the Switch with another unit in the Switch 1100/3300 family

using a single Matrix Cable
Stack the Switch with up to three other units in the Switch 1100/3300

family, if one of the units has a Matrix Module installed
