10/100 Mbps and 10/100/1000Mbps
The OS6850-24L provides 20 fixed
10/100BaseT non-combo (1–20) and 4
fixed
10/100/1000BaseT combo 21–24).
These are auto-sensing and auto-MDIX
and use RJ-45 connectors.
Console Port
The OS6850-24L front panel
provides one RJ-45 port for con-
sole connections. Console con-
nections are used by network
administrators for switch man-
agement. This female RJ-45 con-
nector provides a DTE console

Status and Slot Indicator LEDs
For information on the OS6850-24L’s
status and slot indicator LEDs, refer to
page 2-53
.
USB Port
High speed USB port, which can be
used for quick upgrades.
Combo SFP
The OS6850-24L provides four combo
SFP connectors for 1000Base-X high-
speed connections.
By default, when an SFP is installed in a
combo port, it takes over the port number
of the corresponding RJ-45 Ethernet port.
In other words, if an SFP is installed in
the slot labeled 24, Ethernet port 24
would no longer be available and cannot
be used for 10/100/1000 traffic. This
default setting is referred to as “preferred
fiber.” Refer to “Configuring Ethernet” in
the
Network Configuration Guide
for
detailed information, including
steps for
configuring combo port settings.
