Cisco Systems Dual-Purpose Port, Power Input Port Catalyst 2960PD-8TT-L Switch, 1-11

Chapter 1 Product Overview

Front Panel Description

Dual-Purpose Port

You can configure a dual-purpose port as either a 10/100/1000 port or as an SFP module port.

Only one port can be active at a time. If both ports are connected, the SFP module port has priority. You cannot configure the priority setting.

You can set the 10/100/1000 ports to autonegotiate. You can also configure them as fixed 10, 100, or 1000 Mb/s (Gigabit) Ethernet ports. You can configure the duplex setting. See the software configuration for more information.

Power Input Port (Catalyst 2960PD-8TT-L Switch)

The Catalyst 2960PD-8TT-L can receive power from these sources:

1.Through a 10/100/1000 port from an upstream Ethernet switch that provides power (complies with IEEE 802.3af). (See Figure 1-15.)

2.Through an external AC power adapter that connects to the back of the switch. This external power adapter (PWR-A=) is not included with the switch, but you can order it from your Cisco representative. (See Figure 1-16.)
