14 CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCING THE SWITCH 4200G FAMILY
About the Switch
4200G
The Switch 4200G Family are mixed media devices which consist of:
■ 12, 24 or 48 10/100/1000BASE-T ports
■ Four 1000BASE-X SFP ports
■ One option module slot for a 10 Gigabit Ethernet port module on the
Switch 4200G 12-Port. Requires an optional XFP.
■ Two option module slots for a 10 Gigabit Ethernet port module on the
Switch 4200G 24-Port and the Switch 4200G 48-Port. Requires an
optional XFP.
■ One RJ-45 connector for serial management
The Switch 4200G Family provides high-performance workgroups with a
backbone to server connection. You can also add the Switch 4200G
Family to any SuperStack
®
system as your network grows.
For information about using the software features of the Switch, refer to
the “Command Reference Guide” and the “Configuration Guide” on the
CD-ROM that accompanies the Switch.
