Side Panel Description
The left- and right-hand panels of the switch have heat vents to dissipate heat. Do not block these
openings, and leave at least 6 inches of space at the rear and sides of the switch for proper ventilation.
Be reminded that without proper heat dissipation and air circulation, system components might
overheat, which could lead to system failure.

Gigabit Combo Ports
The EAS 100-24t features four Gigabit Ethernet Combo ports. These ports are 1000BASE-T copper ports
(provided) and Mini-GBIC ports (optional). See the diagram below to view the two Mini-GBIC port
modules being plugged into the switch. Please note that although these two front panel modules can be
used simultaneously, the ports must be different. The GBIC port will always have the highest priority.
