1.1 Description of the modules
The industrial ETHERNET series PowerMICE (Modular Industrial 
Communication Equipment) consists of a basic switch module and the media 
modules. These devices can be managed. A basic module contains all the 
functions of this industrial Switch, with the exception of the interfaces to the 
LAN that is connected. Pluggable media modules provide these interfaces. 
They differ with regard to the number of interfaces and the media type for 
connecting segments. An expansion module enables you to add 2 slots for 
media modules to the basic module.
For the sake of simplicity, the basic switch module with various plugged in 
media modules will be referred to as PowerMICE in this document.
