USB Port
High speed USB port, which can be
used for quick upgrades.
Combo SFP
The OS6850-48L provides four combo SFP connectors for 1000Base-X high-
speed connections
.
By default, when an SFP is installed in a combo port, it takes over the port num-
ber of the corresponding RJ-45 Ethernet port. In other words, if an SFP is
installed in the slot labeled 4, Ethernet port 4 would no longer be available and
cannot be used for 10/100/1000 traffic. This default setting is referred to as
“preferred fiber.” Refer to “Configuring Ethernet” in the
Network Configuration Guide
for detailed information, including steps for con-
figuring combo port settings.
