SMC TigerSwitch Modules
Installation Guide

Introduction

The SMC TigerSwitch modules can be installed into the SMC6624M switch  
to provide 100 Mbps and 1000 Mbps connections to other compatible 
network devices.

This document describes how to install, verify, and troubleshoot the 
following SMC TigerSwitch modules:

Use these modules for the following network connectivity:

1000BASE-SX module—1000 Mbps operation over multimode fiber-
optic cable

1000BASE-LX module—1000 Mbps operation over either single-
mode or multimode fiber-optic cable

100/1000BASE-T module—1000 or 100 Mbps operation over Cate-
gory 5 or better unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) or shielded twisted-
pair (STP) cables

100BASE-FX SC module—100 Mbps operation over multimode 
fiber-optic cable

For more information on the cables used with these modules and the 
supported cable lengths, see page 4.
