Introduction

Two modes	This module operates in two modes.
	•	Stack mode (default setting):
		Used when the switch containing this module is connected to a
		group of switches (or stack) via a Matrix Module. The two Stack
		Interface Module (SIM) connectors enable the module to be inte-
		grated into the group of switches (even a stack with redun-
		dancy). The fiber optic SC connector provides the high-speed
		link between the group of switches (or stack) and another stack
		or device.
	•	Stand-alone mode:
		Used to provide a high-speed link between the switch and
		another device via the fiber optic SC connector.
Installing the module	To install the module, follow the instructions in Chapter 1.
