The following figure illustrates the PowerConnect 5324 front panel.
Figure 2-3. PowerConnect 5324 Front Panel
The front panel contains ports1-24, which are copper based RJ-45 ports, designated as 10/100/1000
Mbps and support both Half and Full Duplex modes. There are four SFP fiber ports which are
designated as Combo ports 21-24. A Combo port is a single logical port with two physical
connections. Only one physical connection can be active at a time, so either the copper ports or the
equivalent fiber ports 21-24 can be active, but they cannot both be active simultaneously. The
upper row of ports are marked by odd numbers 1-23 and the lower row of ports are marked with
even numbers 2-24.
On the front panel is an RS-232 Console port, all the device LEDs and a Reset Button which is
used to manually reset the device.
