SFP Modules and Alternative Wiring
The Catalyst 4948 switches have four ports that can be configured with any
combination of SFP modules with LC connectors, as shown in
Figure 4-2
. The
interface configuration mode command
media-type

rj45
can be used to
configure the media type for these ports in the switch software and determines
whether the SFP or the RJ-45 connector is used. The default is SFP.
