Switch Components
Catalyst 2948G and 2980G Switch Ports
The Catalyst 2948G switch 10/100BASE-T ports are configured in two rows. The
top row contains odd-numbered ports (1 through 47), and the bottom row contains
even-numbered ports (2 through 48).
The Catalyst 2980G switch 10/100BASE-T ports are configured in four rows. The
top two rows are numbered 1 through 48, with the first row odd-numbered (1
through 47) and the second row even-numbered (2 through 48). The bottom two
rows are numbered 1 through 32, with the first row odd-numbered (1 through 31)
and the second row even-numbered (2 through 32).
Two GBIC ports are at the right of the front panel on the Catalyst 2948G and
Catalyst 2980G switches:
• On the Catalyst 2948G switches, these ports are located at the far right of the
front panel. The upper Gigabit Ethernet port is port 49; the lower is port 50.
The Link Status LEDs for these ports are below port 50.
• On the Catalyst 2980G switches, the GBIC Ethernet ports are located
immediately to the right of ports 31 and 32. The port on the left is port 33; the
port on the right is port 34. The Link Status LEDs for the Gigabit Ethernet
ports are located below each port.
Catalyst 2948G-GE-TX Switch Ports
The Catalyst 2948G-GE-TX 10/100/1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet ports are
configured in two rows. The top row contains odd-numbered ports (1 through 47),
and the bottom row contains even-numbered ports (2 through 48).
The SFP module slots are numbered left to right 49 through 52.
