Throughout this manual, these switches will be referred to as the 2610
Switches and the 2610-PWR Switches.

The 2610 Switches, has either 24 or 48 auto-sensing 10/100Base-TX RJ-45
ports with four Gigabit Uplink ports, two RJ-45 and two mini-GBIC (Small
Form Factor Pluggable (SFP)) slots. For a list of supported mini-GBICs
see

page 2-17

.

The RJ-45 Gigabit Uplink ports are auto-sensing 10/100/1000Base-T. These
ports operate independently, they are not dual-personality.

Table 1-1.

These products support optional network connectivity with the
following speeds and technologies:

The 2610-PWR Switches incorporate two additional features. These switches
offer two types of power, one for switch AC operating power, and the other
for Power over Ethernet (PoE) power:

Power-over-Ethernet or PoE power

- PoE technology allows IP

telephones, wireless LAN Access Points and other appliances to receive
power as well as data over existing LAN cabling, without needing to
modify the existing Ethernet infrastructure. The 2610-PWR Switches are
designed with an internal PoE power supply capable of providing 406
watts of PoE power (126 watts on the 2610-24/12PWR). All of the Switch
2610-PWR ports can provide up to 15.4 watts (or 7.5 watts if all 12 ports
are used on the 2610-24/12PWR) of PoE power to connected devices.
