Uplink Ports
The Switch is equipped with 4 mini-GBIC uplink ports.
The Back Panel
The power port is located on the back panel of the Ethernet switch.
Power Port
The 100-240 VAC power cord is connected to the Power port.
GBIC1-4 The Switch provides four mini-GBIC ports. The mini-GBIC port is a
connection point for a mini-GBIC expansion module, so the Switch can
be uplinked via fiber or copper to another switch. Each mini-GBIC port
provides a link to a high-speed network segment or individual
workstation at speeds of up to 1000Mbps.
Use the Linksys MGBT1, MGBSX1, or MGBLH1 mini-GBIC modules
with the Switch. The MGBSX1 and the MGBLH1 require fiber cabling
with LC connectors, while the MGBT1 requires a Category 5e Ethernet
cable with an RJ-45 connector.
CAUTION: Only use the power cord
that is supplied with the Ethernet switch.
The unit may be damaged if the
incorrect power cord is used.
