3.2.1 Console Port
For local management, you can use a computer with terminal emulation software
configured to the following parameters:
• VT100
• Terminal emulation
• 9600 bps
• No parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit
• No flow control
Connect the male 9-pin end of the console cable to the console port of the Switch.
Connect the female end to a serial port (COM1, COM2 or other COM port) of your
computer.
3.2.2 Gigabit Ethernet Ports
The Switch has 1000Base-T auto-negotiating, auto-crossover Ethernet ports. In
10/100/1000 Mbps Gigabit, the speed can be 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps or 1000 Mbps
and the duplex mode can be half duplex or full duplex.
An auto-negotiating port can detect and adjust to the optimum Ethernet speed
(10/100/1000 Mbps) and duplex mode (full duplex or half duplex) of the
connected device.
An auto-crossover (auto-MDI/MDI-X) port automatically works with a straight-
through or crossover Ethernet cable.
Four Dual
Personality
Interfaces Each interface has one 1000BASE-T RJ-45 port and one Small Form-Factor
Pluggable (SFP) slot (also called a mini-GBIC slot), with one port or
transceiver active at a time.
Note: The ports change to fiber mode directly when inserting the fiber
module.
• Four GE Ethernet 100/1000 Mbps RJ-45 Ports:
Connect these ports to high-bandwidth backbone network Ethernet
switches using 1000BASE-T compatible Category 5/5e/6 copper cables.
• Four Mini
-
GBIC Slots:
Use mini
-
GBIC transceivers in these slots for connections to backbone
Ethernet switches.
Console Port The console port is for local configuration of the Switch.
