Description of Hardware

The base unit contains 24 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX ports, plus three slots on the rear panel for various modules. A Management Module can be installed in the upper slot on the rear panel (see “Installing a Management Module” on page 4). The lower-left slot can be used for an optional media expansion module or Stacking Module, while the lower-right slot can be used for a media expansion module. Note that the media expansion modules include a Fast Ethernet fiber optic module with two 100BASE-FX (SC type) ports or a one port Gigabit 1000BASE-SX (SC type), or 1000BASE-LX uplink module.

All RJ-45 ports on the base unit operate at 10 or 100 Mbps, and support auto-negotiation of speed, duplex mode (i.e., half or full duplex), and flow control.

The 1000BASE-SX and 1000BASE-LX ports are fixed at 1000 Mbps but auto-negotiate duplex mode. The 100BASE-FX module is fixed at the 100 Mbps, full duplex. All media types can auto-negotiate flow control.

Note that when using auto-negotiation, the speed, transmission mode and flow control can be automatically set if this feature is also supported by the attached device. Otherwise, these items can be manually configured for any connection.

The base unit also includes a display panel for key system and port indications that simplify installation and network troubleshooting.
