Introduction

A Media Independent Interface (MII) slot is built in to the back panel of all 7000 Series Switches. An Asanté 100 FX MII module can easily be plugged in to allow for 100Base-FX connections.

Model Numbering Convention

Model numbers for the Asanté FriendlyNET family of switches adhere to the following convention:

The first digit identifies the series number

The second digit indicates the number of Gigabit ports

The third and fourth digits indicate the number of Fast Ethernet dual speed 10/100 ports
