100/1000 Ethernet ports

The 100/1000 Ethernet interface module contains 20 physical ports, through which you can connect your router to other network routers at a speed of 100 Mbps or 1 Gbps.

You must insert an SFP-compliant fiber-optic transceiver (provided by Brocade) into a physical port. SFP-compliant fiber-optic transceivers provide a physical medium-dependent (PMD) fiber interface that can be used with either the LAN physical layer (PHY) or WAN physical layer (WAN PHY).

For a list of SFP optics supported by Brocade, refer to the latest version of the Brocade Optics Family Data Sheet, available online in the following location:
