Status and Slot Indicator LEDs
For information on the OS6850-24’s
status and slot indicator LEDs, refer

.
USB Port
High speed USB port, which can be
used for quick upgrades.
Combo SFP
The OS6850-24 provides four combo SFP
connectors for 1000Base-X high-speed con-
nections.
By default, when an SFP is installed in a
combo port, it takes over the port number of
the corresponding RJ-45 Ethernet port. In
other words, if an SFP is installed in the slot
labeled 24, Ethernet port 24 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 configuring combo port settings.
