Ports
Console port
All S3100V2 switches have one console port on the front panel.
Table 17 Console port specifications
Item Specification
Connector type RJ-45
Compliant standard Asynchronous EIA/TIA-232
Transmission baud rate 9600 bps (default) to 115200 bps
Services
• Provides connection to an ASCII terminal.
• Provides connection to the serial port of a local or remote (through a pair of
modems) PC running terminal emulation program.
10/100Base-TX Ethernet port
All S3100V2 switches provide 10/100Base-TX auto-sensing Ethernet ports on their front panels.
Table 18 10/100Base-TX Ethernet port specifications
Item Specification
Connector type RJ-45
Interface attributes
• 10 Mbps, full/half duplex
• 100 Mbps, full/half duplex
• MDI/MDI-X, auto-sensing
Max transmission distance 100 m (328.08 ft)
Transmission medium Category-5 twisted pair cable
Standards IEEE 802.3i, 802.3u
Combo interface
All S3100V2 switches offer combo interfaces. Each combo interface has one 100/1000Base-X fiber SFP
port and one 10/100/1000Base-T auto-sensing copper Ethernet port. These two ports share one port
name and port view and cannot work simultaneously. When you activate one port (by using the combo
enable { copper | fiber } command, the other port automatically shuts down. For the number of combo
interfaces available on each S3100V2 switch, see Table 13, Table 14, and Table 15.
