Introduction

DualTSX Interconnect Module Panel

One DualTSX Interconnect Module is inserted into the rear side of each GbE Interconnect Switch. Each DualTSX Interconnect Module has two RJ-45 connectors with link activity and speed LEDs and two LC connectors with only link activity LEDs for uplink network cabling. Two LC connectors support 1000 SX Ethernet short-haul fiber connections, and two RJ-45 connectors support 10/100 Ethernet copper connections for uplink connectivity.

NOTE: To the side of the two Gigabit Ethernet LC connectors are LEDs reserved for stacking support. Stacking functionality is planned for a future release of GbE Interconnect Switch firmware.
