Gigabit Ethernet Interface Modules are available in
these port configurations:
The 2-port 1000BASE-SX Gigabit Ethernet
Interface Module (Model Number 3CB9LG2MC).
Ports on this module use an 850-nanometer,
multimode, optical transceiver (black).
The 2-port 1000BASE-LX Gigabit Ethernet
Interface Module (Model Number 3CB9LG2SC).
Ports on this module use a 1300-nanometer,
multimode/single-mode, optical transceiver (blue).
The 4-Port GBIC Gigabit Ethernet Interface Module
(Model Number 3CB9LG4), supports 1000BASE-LX
and 1000BASE-SX Gigabit Interface Converter
(GBIC) transceivers.
The 9-Port 1000BASE-SX Gigabit Ethernet Layer 2
Switching Module (Model Number 3CB9LG9MC)
has nine 1000BASE-SX Gigabit Ethernet front
panel ports, which interface to backplane ports in
the CoreBuilder 9000 Enterprise Switch.
The Gigabit Ethernet interface modules support the
following key features:
Two front panel 802.3z–compliant Gigabit
Ethernet fiber-optic ports that connect to a
dedicated, non-blocking, redundant Gigabit
Ethernet backplane channel
Management using the CoreBuilder 9000
Administration Console (a command line
interface), through the Web Management suite of
applications, or from Simple Network
Management Protocol (SNMP) applications by
connecting through the Gigabit Ethernet Switch

Because Gigabit Ethernet interface modules are not
intelligent, you cannot access them directly; all
communication takes place through the switch fabric
module. GEN interface modules serve as a
two-Gigabit data channel between the GEN Switch
Fabric Module and other 802.3z-compliant Ethernet
devices.
For information about how to install these modules,
see the module's Quick Start Guide that is shipped
with each module.
ATM Interface Modules
The ATM Interface Module is a high-performance
ATM switch that is designed to increase the capacity
and manageability of enterprise networks. It allows
you to scale performance to extremely high levels as
your network grows and evolves.
The ATM Interface Module supports demanding
enterprise backbones and high-density data center
applications, providing high-performance ATM
switching at both the network core and boundary. It
can switch up to 15 Gbps of cell traffic and provides
non-blocking throughput on all interfaces.
For information about how to install this module, see
the CoreBuilder 9000 ATM Interface Module Getting
Started Guide.
