Installing a Switch Module

78

There are several different PowerBlade Switches you can “mix and
match” in a chassis. The AT-PB200 and AT-PB202/x Series Switches have
a 10/100Base-TX twisted pair port and a 100Base-FX fiber optic port. The
twisted pair port has an RJ-45 connector and a maximum operating
distance of 100 meters (328 feet). The fiber optic port has either a FJ, LC,
MT-RJ, SC, ST, or VF-45 fiber optic connector and a maximum operating
distance of 2 kilometers to 100 kilometers (62 miles), depending on the
model.

The twisted pair port operates at 10/100 Mbps while the fiber optic port
operates at 100 Mbps. Both ports feature half- or full-duplex operation.
