Introduction
Two modes
This module operates in two modes.
Stack mode (default setting):
Used when the switch containing this module is connected to a
group of switches (or stack) via a Matrix Module. The two Stack
Interface Module (SIM) connectors enable the module to be inte-
grated into the group of switches (even a stack with redun-
dancy). The fiber optic SC connector provides the high-speed
link between the group of switches (or stack) and another stack
or device.
Stand-alone mode:
Used to provide a high-speed link between the switch and
another device via the fiber optic SC connector.
Installing the module
To install the module, follow the instructions in Chapter 1.
