The Switch 4210G 24-Port provides two interface module slots on its rear panel. Each slot is installed with a filler panel when the switch is shipped. You can select one or two interface modules for your switch as needed. See Optional Interface Modules on page 1-15 for the interface module models supported by the Switch 4210G, and see Connecting the RPS Power Cord on page 3-14 for the installation of interface modules.
