This chapter describes the front panel, rear panel, side panels, optional plug-in modules, and LED indicators of the DES-3226.

Front Panel

The front panel of the Switch consists of LED indicators, an RS-232 communication port, a slide-in module slot, and either 10, 18 or 24 MDI-X/MDI-II Ethernet/Fast Ethernet (10/100 Mbps) ports, each of which is capable of making an uplink connection.

An RS-232 DCE console port for setting up and managing the Switch via a connection to a console terminal or PC using a terminal emulation program.

A front-panel slide-in module slot can accommodate a 1-port 100BASE-FX (2Km), 2-port 100BASE-FX (2Km), 1-port 100BASE-FL (15Km), 2-port 100BASE-FL (15Km), 2-port 1000BASE- SX, 2-port 1000BASE-LX, 2-port 1000BASE-T, or 2-port GBIC module to connect to another switch, server or network backbone.

Twenty-four high-performance, NWay Ethernet ports all of which operate at 10/100 Mbps for connections to end stations, servers and hubs. All ports can auto-negotiate between 10Mbps or 100Mbps and full or half duplex.
