FGS624XGP and FGS624XGP-POE Devices
FGS624XGP and FGS624XGP-POE models contain the following ports:
•
24 10/100/1000 copper ports that support 100Base-TX and 1000Base-T RJ-45 connectors.
•
Four 100/1000 Gigabit Fiber uplink ports (1F – 4F) for mini-GBIC optical transceivers (also
called Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP) Multisource Agreement (MSA)-compliant optical
transceivers)
NOTE
Copper ports 1 – 4 and fiber ports 1F – 4F are combination ports, meaning either the copper
port or its corresponding fiber port can be active, but they cannot both be active at the same
time. You can use a combination of fiber and copper ports, or all four copper, or all four fiber
ports, as needed. For more information, refer to
“Combination ports” on page 9.
