This section describes the Catalyst 4900M hardware components.
There are eight 10-Gigabit Ethernet uplink ports using X2 interfaces and other
traffic ports depending on the switching modules installed.
On the WS-4908-10GE modules only, TwinGig converter modules may be used
in place of X2 modules if you need to provide 1 GB SFP connections. When you
insert the TwinGig into one port, its neighbor automatically converts to 1 GE
interfaces whether it has a TwinGig installed or not, so you need to group your
TwinGigs next to one another. The neighboring port to a TwinGig port cannot
support an X2.
