Optional Media Extender Module

1000BASE Combo Module

Figure 1-5 Single-Port 1000BASE-T/SFP Combo Module

The 1000BASE-T RJ-45 port and SFP slot on this module share the same internal interface. If an SFP transceiver (purchased separately) is installed in a slot and has a valid link, the associated RJ-45 port is disabled and cannot be used. The switch can also be configured to force the use of an RJ-45 port or SFP slot, as required.

When connecting to the 1000BASE-T RJ-45 port, Category 5, 5e, or 6 twisted-pair cable can be used to connect to another device up to 100 m (328 ft) away. The 1000BASE-T port operates at 10, 100, and 1000 Mbps. At 1000 Mbps it operates at full duplex and supports auto-negotiation of flow control. At 10/100 Mbps it supports auto-negotiation of speed, duplex mode (i.e., half or full duplex), and flow control. Note that you should first test the cable installation for IEEE 802.3ab compliance. See “1000BASE-T Cable Requirements” on page 4-6.

This module also provides an SFP slot that supports 1000BASE-SX, 1000BASE-LX and 1000BASE-ZX transceivers. For a full listing of the supported transceivers, see “Ordering Information” on page E-1.
