Chapter 3 Hardware Overview An auto-crossover (auto-MDI/MDI-X) port automatically works with a straightthrough or crossover Ethernet cable. 3.1.2.1 Default Ethernet Settings The factory default negotiation settings for the Ethernet ports on the Switch are: • Speed: Auto • Duplex: Auto • Flow control: off 3.1.3 Mini-GBIC Slots These are slots for mini-GBIC (Gigabit Interface Converter) transceivers. A transceiver is a single unit that houses a transmitter and a receiver. The Switch does not come with transceivers. You must use transceivers that comply with the SFP Transceiver MultiSource Agreement (MSA). See the SFF committee's INF8074i specification Rev 1.0 for details. There are two pairs of Gigabit Ethernet/mini-GBIC ports. The mini-GBIC ports have priority over the Gigabit ports. This means that if a mini-GBIC port and the corresponding Gigabit port are connected at the same time, the Gigabit port will be disabled. You can change transceivers while the Switch is operating. You can use different transceivers to connect to Ethernet switches with different types of fiber-optic connectors. • Type: SFP connection interface • Connection speed: 1 Gigabit per second (Gbps) Note: To avoid possible eye injury, do not look into an operating fiber-optic module's connectors. 3.1.3.1 Transceiver Installation Use the following steps to install a mini GBIC transceiver (SFP module).
