AT-9400 Series Gigabit Ethernet Switches Installation Guide

GBIC Transceiver Slots

For interconnecting devices over large distances using fiber optic cable, the AT-9424T/GB Switch has two slots on the front panel labeled 23 and 24 for optional fiber optic Gigabit Interface Converter (GBIC) Ethernet transceivers. Figure 10 illustrates a GBIC transceiver.

GBIC transceiver slots 23 and 24 are paired with twisted pair ports 23R and 24R. Only one port or transceiver in a pair can be operational at a time and a link on a transceiver port takes priority over a link on a twisted pair port. For further information, refer to “Redundant Twisted Pair Ports” on page 32.
