The switch provides eight 100M/1G/10G copper RJ-45 ports, of which port 8T and slot 8F 
form a shared (combo) port. The 1G/10G SFP+ slots (8F) accept fiber modules. You use 
either port 8T or port 8F. Each copper RJ-45 port is capable of sensing the line speed and 
negotiating the duplex mode with the link partner automatically.
