● 100BASE-FX: LC fiber connectors (single and multimode fiber).
● Customers can provide power to a switch only by using the internal power supply.
Power connectors
The connector is located at the back of the switch. These switches do not have a redundant
power supply port.
● The internal power supply is an autoranging unit.
● The internal power supply supports input voltages between 100 and 240VAC.
● Use the supplied AC power cord to connect the AC power connector to an AC power outlet.
● Per-port status: Link integrity, disabled, activity, speed, and full duplex
Indicators
● System status: System, link status, link duplex, and link speed
