Connectivity

The

 

switch

 

connects

 

to

 

Ethernet

 

networks

 

or

 

workstations

 

through

 

the

 

fixed

 

front

 

panel

 

RJ45

 

connectors

 

and

 

four

 

uplink

 

ports

 

that

 

support

 

optional

 

Mini

GBICs.

At

 

the

 

time

 

of

 

this

 

printing,

 

the

 

Mini

GBICs

 

supported

 

and

 

available

 

from

 

Enterasys

 

are

 

described

 

in
