Getting to Know the SFE2010/SFE2010P

This chapter describes the ports, LEDs, and other features on the front and back panels of the
switch.
The SFE2010 and SFE2010P are 48-port, layer-2 Ethernet switches that affordably expand the
capability of the Linksys system. These two versions are functionally identical except the
SFE2010P model offers Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) which can be used to supply power to
various Linksys products over Ethernet cable.
