Chapter 2: Getting to Know the Switch
SRW2048
WebView Switches
miniGBIC 1-4 The miniGBIC (gigabit interface converter) port is a connection point for a miniGBIC
expansion module, so the Switch can be uplinked via fiber to another switch. The MiniGBIC
port provides a link to a high-speed network segment or individual workstation at speeds
of up to 1000Mbps.
Use the Linksys MGBT1, MGBSX1, or MGBLH1 miniGBIC modules with the Switch. The
MGBSX1 and the MGBLH1 require fiber cabling with LC connectors, while the MGBT1
requires a Category 5e Ethernet cable with an RJ-45 connector.
Back Panel
The power port is located on the back panel of the Switch.
Console The Console port is where you can connect a serial cable to a PC’s serial port for
configuration using your PC’s HyperTerminal program. Refer to Chapter 4: Using the
Console Interface for Configuration for more information.
Power The Power port is where you will connect the power cord.

NOTE: If you need to reset the Switch, unplug
the power cord from the back of the Switch.
Wait a few seconds and then reconnect it.
NOTE: On the SRW2048, MiniGBIC ports are shared
with standard ports. If a miniGBIC port is used, then
the shared standard port on the Switch cannot be
used. See "Table 1:SRW2048 Shared Port Mapping"
for port mapping details of the SRW2048 Switch.
