Interface Modules 49 s The 36-port 10/100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet RJ-45 Layer 2 Switching Module (Model Number 3CB9LF36R) has thirty-six 10/100 Mbps RJ-45 front panel ports. These ports interface to a maximum of two 1-Gigabit non-blocking ports on the backplane. s The 20-port 100BASE-FX (MT-RJ) Fast Ethernet Layer 2 Switching Module (Model Number 3CB9LF20MM) has twenty 100 Mbps Ethernet fiber-optic ports with MT-RJ connectors on its front panel and two 1-Gigabit ports on the back for connection to the chassis backplane. The following Layer 3 router switching modules are designed for the CoreBuilder 9000 7-slot chassis, 8-slot chassis, and 16-slot chassis: s The 12-port 10/100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet Layer 3 Module (multiprotocol module) (Model Number 3CB9RF12R) has twelve 10/100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet front panel ports that provide a 100 Mbps connection over UTP-Category 5 cables with lengths up to 100 meters (328 ft.). These ports interface to one Gigabit Ethernet non-blocking port that connects through the backplane to the switch fabric module. s The 10-port 100BASE-FX Fast Ethernet Layer 3 Module (multiprotocol module) (Model Number 3CB9RF10MC) has 10 front-panel external ports of full-duplex 100BASE-FX, using SC (Subscriber Connector) connectors over MMF (multi-mode fiber). These ports interface to one Gigabit Ethernet (GEN) port that connects to the backplane. s The 6-port SAS (3-port DAS) FDDI Layer 3 Switching Module (Model Number 3CB9RD6MC) has six ports with Subscriber Connectors (SC) on the front panel that provide up to six Single Attached Station (SAS) connections or up to three Dual Attached Station (DAS) connections with either single mode fiber or multimode fiber. One Gigabit Ethernet port connects the module to the chassis backplane. s The 4-port GBIC Gigabit Ethernet Layer 3 Switching Module (Model Number 3CB9RG4) has four Gigabit Ethernet Interface Converter (GBIC) front panel ports, which interface to four Gigabit Ethernet backplane ports. The 4-Port Gigabit Ethernet Layer 3 Switching Module includes its own embedded management agent that supports standard Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) Management Information Bases (MIBs). For information about how to install these modules, see the module's Quick Start Guide that is shipped with each module. Gigabit Ethernet Interface Modules The Gigabit Ethernet (GEN) Interface Modules are two-port interface modules for the 3Com CoreBuilder 9000 Enterprise Switch. The GEN interface modules serve as a 2-Gigabit data channel between the Gigabit Ethernet Switch Fabric Module and other 802.3z-compliant Gigabit Ethernet devices. GEN Interface Modules use SC connectors.
