Console cable
LAN interfaces: four GE electrical interfaces RJ45

A GE electrical interface (10/100/1000 Mbit/s auto-sensing) transmits and receives services at 10 Mbit/s, 100 Mbit/s, or 1000 Mbit/s.

  • Standards compliance: IEEE802.3, IEEE802.3u, and IEEE802.3ab

Ethernet cable
WAN interfaces: GE combo interfaces

GE electrical interface: RJ45

GE optical interface: LC/PC

A GE combo interface consists of an optical Ethernet interface and an electrical Ethernet interface on the panel. The two interfaces have only one internal forwarding interface. The electrical and optical interfaces are multiplexed, and only either of them can work at a time. When either of the Ethernet interfaces is working, the other interface is shut down.

  • The GE electrical interface (10/100/1000 Mbit/s auto-sensing) transmits and receives services at 10 Mbit/s, 100 Mbit/s, or 1000 Mbit/s.
  • The GE optical interface (100/1000 Mbit/s auto-sensing) transmits and receives services at 100 Mbit/s or 1000 Mbit/s.
NOTE:

By default, a combo interface works in auto mode and automatically works as an optical or electrical interface.
  • GE electrical interface: Ethernet cable
  • GE optical interface: optical fiber and optical module

The following optical modules are supported:

FE SFP&eSFP optical modules

GE eSFP optical modules
