The GBIC ports can provide high-bandwidth uplinks between the Alcatel
Wireless LAN Switch and the wired LAN. The Gigabit Ethernet port sockets
accept a variety of Gigabit Interface Converters for versatility in selecting
optical and electrical interfaces. See the installation guide for port and cable
