.

.

mountable Switches with two or four quad-port slots in the front, i.e., with a capacity of 

8 or 16 switched ports. The QS5108 and QS5116 rack-mount units are typically used in 

larger network wiring centers.

port QS5116 Mixed-Media 

Switches 

 

 

. Mixed-media combination modules (4-port modules with three fiber ports and 

one twisted-pair port) are supported in all of the Quad-Series Fiber Switch models. All 

quad-module manual-selection switches and LED’s are located on the front panel, with 

the IEC standard AC power connector (and a manual ON - OFF power switch) located at 

the rear.  Fan-driven cooling air flows left to right.
