Ethernet/Fast Ethernet/Gigabit Ethernet standards.
3.1.1.
10/100/1000Base-T Ports
The 10/100/1000Base-T ports support network speeds of 10Mbps, 100Mbps or 1000Mbps, and
can operate in half- and full-duplex transfer modes. These ports also offer automatic MDI/MDI-
X crossover detection that gives true “plug-n-play” capability – just plug the network cables into
the ports and the ports will adjust according to the end-node devices. The following are
recommended cabling for the RJ-45 connectors: (1) 10Mbps – Cat 3 or better; (2) 100/1000Mbps
– Cat 5e or better.
3.1.2.
SFP Slots for SFP modules
The four SFP slots are designed to Gigabit SFP modules that support network speed of 1000Mbps.
