Gigabit Copper/SFP (mini-GBIC) combo port
The Industrial switch has two auto-detect Giga port—UTP/Fiber combo ports. The
Gigabit Copper (10/100/1000T) ports should use Category 5e or above UTP/STP cable
for connection. The SFP slots are for connecting to the network segment with single or
multi-mode fiber. You can choose an appropriate mini-GBIC module to plug into the slots.
Make sure the module is aligned correctly and then slide the module into the SFP slot
until a click is heard. You should use proper multi-mode or single-mode fiber according
to the used SFP module. Fiber optic connections enable transmit speeds up to 1000
Mbps, while preventing electrical noise interference and permitting transmission distance
up to 110 km, depending on the mini-GBIC module.
The small form-factor pluggable (SFP) is a compact optical transceiver used in optical
communications for both telecommunication and data communications applications.
To connect the transceiver and LC cable, please follow the steps shown below:
