Combo SFP
The OS6850-P24X 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.
10/100/1000Mbps PoE
The OS6850-P24X provides 20 fixed 10/100/
1000BaseT non-combo PoE (1–20) and 4 fixed
10/100/1000BaseT combo PoE (21–24). These
are auto-sensing and auto-MDIX and use RJ-45
connectors.
