SFP Module Slots
The SFP module slots support the SFP modules listed in the Catalyst 3560 release
notes.
SFP Modules
The Catalyst 3560 switch uses Gigabit Ethernet SFP modules to establish
fiber-optic and 1000BASE-T connections. These transceiver modules are
field-replaceable, providing the uplink interfaces when inserted in an SFP module
slot. You can use the SFP modules for Gigabit uplink connections to other
switches. You use fiber-optic cables with LC or MT-RJ connectors to connect to
a fiber-optic SFP module. You use Category 5 cable with RJ-45 connectors to
connect to a copper SFP module.
The Catalyst 3560 models support these Cisco SFP modules:
• 1000BASE-LX
•
1000BASE-SX
• 1000BASE-ZX
•
1000BASE-T
• CWDM
For more information about these SFP modules, refer to your SFP module
documentation.
LEDs
You can use the switch LEDs to monitor switch activity and its performance.
Figure 2-3 shows the switch LEDs and the Mode button that you use to select one
of the port modes.
All of the LEDs described in this section are visible in the Cluster Management
Suite (CMS). The switch online help describes how to use CMS to configure and
monitor individual switches and switch clusters.
