18CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCING THE OFFICECONNECT MANAGED SWITCH 9 AND SWITCH 9 FX

When an SFP module is inserted it has priority over the 100BASE-FX port. The corresponding 100BASE-FX port is disabled when an SFP module is present.

100BASE-FX Port The Switch 9 FX has one 100BASE-FX LC port. This is a 100 Mbps fiber-optic port that can use standard multi-mode fiber-optic cable of up to 2 kilometers (1.2 miles). It uses the standard duplex LC connector that allows both the transmit and the receive fibers to be connected in the same space as an RJ-45 port.

When an SFP module is inserted it has priority over the 100BASE-FX port. The corresponding 100BASE-FX port is disabled when an SFP module is present.

Console Port The console port allows you to connect a terminal and perform local out-of-band management. The console port uses an RJ-45 to DB-9 null modem cable (supplied with the Switch) and is set to 19200 baud, 8 data bits, no parity and 1 stop bit.

The default configuration automatically detects any of the following baud rates: 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, 115200. However, you must set the baud rate on your management device to 19200 baud if you want to view all the system initialization messages.

Power Socket The power adapter supplied with the Switch automatically adjusts its power setting to any supply voltage in the range 100-240 VAC. Only use the adapter provided with the Switch.
