16- or 24-Port 10/100/1000 Gigabit Switch with WebView
For the 16-Port Switch, ports 8 and 16 are shared with miniGBIC1 and miniGBIC2,
respectively. For the 24-Port Switch, ports 12 and 24 are shared with miniGBIC1 and
miniGBIC2, respectively.
NOTE: If shared ports are both connected, then the miniGBIC port has priority.
miniGBIC1/2 The Switch provides two mini-GBIC ports. The mini-GBIC (gigabit interface converter) port
is a connection point for a mini-GBIC expansion module, so the Switch can be uplinked via
fiber to another switch. Each mini-GBIC port provides a link to a high-speed network
segment or individual workstation at speeds of up to 1000Mbps.
Use the Linksys MGBT1, MGBSX1, or MGBLH1 mini-GBIC modules with the Switch. The
MGBSX1 and the MGBLH1 require fiber cabling with LC connectors, while the MGBT1
requires a Category 5e Ethernet cable with an RJ-45 connector.
Console The Console port is where you can connect a serial cable to a PC's serial port for
configuration using your PC's HyperTerminal program. Refer to "Chapter 4: Using the
Console Interface for Configuration" for more information.
