The 2G4082‐25 module has 24, 10BASE‐T/100BASE‐TX/1000BASE‐T compliant ports by means of 24 fixed front‐panel RJ45 connectors and a slot for an optional network expansion module (NEM).
Each of the fixed front panel ports can operate in either half‐duplex or full‐duplex mode of operation. The duplex mode can be determined by either auto‐negotiation or manual configuration.
The DFE module ports can be configured to control traffic by limiting the rate of traffic accepted into the module and prioritizing traffic to expedite the flow of higher priority traffic through the module.
The DFE module receives power and backplane connectivity when it is inserted into a chassis.
