The ports are numbered from left to right from 1 to 48 with the odd-numbered ports on top and the even-numbered ports on the bottom.

You useone 1-PPS timing port, with the RF1.0/2.3 QuickConnect connector type.

Two 100/1000 Ethernet management ports enable you to manage switch operations. You can connect to the switch through these two ports by using an RJ-45 connector on a copper cable.

One RS-232 serial console port enables you to initially configure the switch and to perform troubleshooting operations.

One USB port enables you to save or load switch configurations.
