Ports
RJ-45 Ports. These Ethernet RJ-45 ports support both
shielded and unshielded cabling systems. The port autonegotiates the 10/100Mbit/s network speed or can be
forced by the console management interface into either
10Mbit/s or 100Mbit/s at either full-duplex or half-duplex.
Uplink RJ-45 Port. This port is intended for connection to
an uplink device without needing a cross-over cable. This
is a standard 10/100Mbit/s Ethernet interface and shares
the same port assignment as RJ-45 port 16. Therefore, do
not use Port 16 when using this RJ-45 uplink.
100FX Fiber Port. This optional, field installable plug-in
module provides the fiber link to the distant media
converter, NIC card or Ethernet switch. The port operates
in either full duplex or half duplex modes depending on the
setting of DIP switch on the front panel of the plug-in
module. Modules with SC, ST and MT-RJ fiber optic
connectors are available. See page 8 for order codes.
Console Port. A PC or other RS232 terminal is connected
to this port to enable detailed management of the switch.
See the documentation on the web site for full information.
Rear Panel
The rear panel contains the 110/240v AC 50/60Hz power socket.
Note that the fusing is external to the switch.
