WebView Switches

miniGBIC 1-2 The miniGBIC (gigabit interface converter) port is a connection point for a miniGBIC

expansion module, so the Switch can be uplinked via fiber to another switch. The MiniGBIC

port provides a link to a high-speed network segment or individual workstation at speeds

of up to 1000Mbps.

Use the Linksys MGBT1, MGBSX1, or MGBLH1 miniGBIC modules with the Switch. The

MGBSX1 and the MGBLH1 require fiber cabling with LC connectors, while the MGBT1

requires a Category 5e Ethernet cable with an RJ-45 connector.

Back Panel

The power port is located on the back panel of the Switch.

Console The Console port is where you can connect a serial cable to a PC’s serial port for

configuration using your PC’s HyperTerminal program. Refer to Chapter 4: Using the

Console Interface for Configuration for more information.

Power The Power port is where you will connect the power cord.

NOTE: If you need to reset the Switch, unplug the

power cord from the back of the Switch. Wait a few

seconds and then reconnect it.

NOTE: On the SRW2024, MiniGBIC ports are shared

with standard ports. If a miniGBIC port is used, then

the shared standard port on the Switch cannot be

used. See "Table 1:SRW2024 Shared Port Mapping"

for port mapping details of the SRW2024 Switch.
