Cisco Catalyst 2960-CX Product Overview

You can use the command-line interface (CLI) to configure an inactivity timeout which reactivates the RJ-45
console if the USB console has been activated and no input activity has occurred on the USB console for a
specified time.
After the USB console deactivates due to inactivity, you cannot use the CLI to reactivate it. Disconnect and
reconnect the USB cable to reactivate the USB console. For information on using the CLI to configure the
USB console interface, see the software guide.
SFP and SFP+ Module Slots
The switch has either two 1-Gigabit SFP or 10-Gigabit SFP+ module slots. The slots marked SFP+ support
both SFP and SFP+ modules. The SFP slots support only the SFP modules.
