FESX424-POE
Foundry’s FESX424-POE is new in release 02.4.00. Its 10/100/1000 ports provide Power over Ethernet (PoE),
compliant with the IEEE 802.3af specification for delivering power over the LAN. The 802.3af specification
provides the standard for delivering power over existing network cabling infrastructure, enabling multicast-enabled
full streaming audio and video applications for converged services, such as, Voice over IP (VoIP), WLAN access
points, IP surveillance cameras, and other IP powered devices.
For more information about POE and the CLI commands used to configure it, see the Foundry FastIron X-Series
Configuration Guide.
The FESX424-POE has the following ports:
• 20 10/100/1000 ports with RJ-45 copper connectors
• Four combination Gigabit Copper/Fiber uplink ports:
• The copper ports support 10/100/1000BaseT RJ-45 connectors.
• The fiber ports support 10/100/1000 SFPs.
• Optionally, one or two 10-Gigabit Ethernet uplink ports for 10-Gigabit Small Form Factor Pluggable (XFP)
MSA-compliant optical transceivers
The ports numbered from 1 – 24 support POE.
Note that one port out of the first four Copper ports or the four Fiber ports can be active at a time. For example,
you can use ports 1 – 4 of the Gigabit Copper ports or ports 1F – 4F of the Gigabit Fiber ports. You can use a
combination of fiber and copper uplink ports or all copper or all fiber ports, as needed. For more information, see
see “FESX and FWSX Combination Ports” on page 2-11.
The following figure shows the front panel of the FESX424-POE.

FESX448, FESX648, and FWSX448
The FESX448, FESX648, and FWSX448 have the following ports:
• 48 Copper ports that support 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45 connectors
• Four Gigabit Fiber uplink ports (1F – 4F) for mini-GBIC optical transceivers (also called Small Form Factor
Pluggable (SFP) Multisource Agreement (MSA)-compliant optical transceivers)
