Each switch supports sixteen universal ports and their interchangeable GBIC modules. The GBIC module uses a standard subscriber connector (SC) or high speed serial data connectors (HSSDC). You can insert a GBIC module while the switch is operational (power on). To install an IBM® GBIC module into an interface card, perform the following steps: 1. Ensure that the locking bar on the front of the IBM GBIC module is to the right side of the GBIC. 2. Insert the GBIC module until its connector is firmly seated into the appropriate port. 3. When firmly seated, lock the GBIC module in the slot by pushing the locking bar to the left side of the GBIC. Do not force the locking bar; reseat if necessary. To install a non-IBM GBIC module into an interface module, perform the following steps: 1. Insert the GBIC module into the appropriate port. 2. Press the GBIC module until its connector is firmly seated. All network cable connections are on the switch's front panel. All recommended cabling supports the switch's 1 gigabyte per second (Gbps) transfer rate, as shown in Table 1-1.
