You can install an uplink module horizontally in the uplink module slot on the front panel
of the switch. By installing an uplink module, you add more ports to your switch, thereby
increasing the port density of the switch.
Table13 on page32 shows the uplink modules supported on 24-port and 48-port EX4300
switches, their descriptions, and the Junos OS release in which the models were released.
