10-Gigabit Ethernet Uplink Ports
The 10-Gigabit Ethernet uplink ports operate in full-duplex mode only. These ports use the
hot-swappable X2 optical transceivers. The X2s have SC connectors to interface with multimode fiber
(MMF) and single-mode fiber (SMF) cable. For further information on X2s, see the
section on page
When two Supervisor Engine 6L-Es are present in a Catalyst 4507R or Catalyst 4507R-E switch, one
X2 uplink is active on both the primary (active) and secondary (standby) supervisor engines by default,
or two uplinks will be active in a nonredundant configuration.
Gigabit Ethernet SFP Uplink Ports
If you want to use SFPs instead of X2s as your uplink transceivers, you can use the Cisco TwinGig
converter modules already provided in the X2 slots. Installation documentation for Cisco TwinGig
converter modules can be found at:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/switches/lan/catalyst3750e_3560e/hardware/install/notes/1757202.html
The 10-Gigabit Ethernet ports default to operating at 10-Gigabit, and will need to be configured in
Note
Software to use the Cisco TwinGig converter modules. For details on this configuration change, refer to
the chapter on configuring interfaces in the configuration guide for your software release.
Ethernet Management Port
The Ethernet management port, also referred to as the Fa1 or fastethernet1 port, is a Layer 3 host port
to which you can connect a PC. You can use the Ethernet management port instead of the switch console
port for network management. When managing a switch, connect the PC to the Ethernet management
port on a Catalyst 4500 series switch.
When connecting a PC to the Ethernet management port, you must assign an IP address.
