Chapter 1: Overview

SFP Transceiver Slots

Several of the AT-9400 Switches feature slots for optional Gigabit Ethernet SFP transceivers for interconnecting network devices over large distances using fiber optic cable. With the exception of the AT-9408LC/SP Switch, each SFP slot is paired with a twisted pair port. A link on an SFP transceiver takes priority in the event both an SFP transceiver and its paired twisted pair port have established links to their respective end nodes. For further information, refer to “Redundant Twisted Pair Ports” on page 32.

Figure 11 illustrates an SFP transceiver.
