(SFP) connectivity
● Twelve combination ports (ports 13–24) using RJ-45 connectors or SFPs to provide 12 Gbps of copper
or fiber connectivity. The SFP ports support both 100BASE-X and 1000BASE-X optical modules.
For more information about combination ports, see “Combination Ports and Failover” on page 22.
For information about SFPs, see the Extreme Networks Pluggable Interface Modules Installation Guide.
