Introduction
The 24-Port 10/100 + 2-Port Gigabit Switch + 2
MiniGBIC
This new Linksys rack-mount switch delivers non-blocking, wire speed switching for your 10/100 Mbps network clients, plus multiple options for connecting to your network backbone. Twenty-four 10/100 ports wire-up your workstations, while the integrated 10/100/1000 ports or miniGBIC ports connect to your servers or backbone at Gigabit speeds.
The SR224G incorporates non-blocking, wire-speed architecture that forwards packets as fast as your network can deliver them. It features broadcast storm suppression that maximizes the system availability. Also included are Address Learning and Aging function to prevent data transfer errors and Data Flow Control to help prevent packet loss.
All ports have automatic MDI/MDI-X crossover detection, so you don’t have to worry about the cable type. Each port independently and automatically negotiates for best speed and whether to run in halfor full-duplex mode. Head-of-line blocking prevention keeps your highspeed clients from bogging down in lower-speed traffic and fast store- and-forward switching prevents damaged packets from being passed on into the network.
No matter how intensive your network demands, the Linksys 24-Port 10/100 + 2-Port Gigabit Switch + 2 MiniGBIC has speed, flexibility, and reliability that you can count on.

Front Panel
The LEDs and network ports are located on the front panel of the Switch.
Front Panel
LEDs
System (Green) This LED lights up and remains lit when the Switch is powered on.
1-24 (Green) Each LED lights up when a connection is made through its corresponding port. It flashes when the corresponding port is active.
Gigabit/miniGBIC 1-2 (Green) The Gigabit/miniGBIC LED lights up when a connection is made through the corresponding Gigabit port. It flashes when the corresponding port is active.
Ports
1-24 These ports connect the Switch to network devices, such as computers.
Gigabit 1-2 The Gigabit RJ-45 ports support 10/100/1000 Mbps connections and are connection points for network devices such as Gigabit servers. Each Gigabit RJ 45 port is paired with a miniGBIC port. If a miniGBIC module is present, the corresponding 10/100/1000 RJ-45 port will be disabled.
MiniGBIC 1-2 The two miniGBIC (Gigabit interface converter) ports are connection points for miniGBIC modules, so the Switch can uplink via fiber to another switch or two. The miniGBIC ports are compatible with the MGBSX1, MGBLH1, and MGBT1 only.
