The four SFP+ ports, 21 to 24, are dual-speed capable ports and can provide 1 Gbps connectivity when used with the supported transceivers and configured for 1 Gbps operation from the SEFOS CLI.
To configure a 1 Gbps fiber link, use the supported 10 Gbps/1 Gbps SFP+ transceiver (PN x2129a). The speed must be changed to 1 Gbps on the appropriate port (see the following example).
To configure a 1 Gbps copper link, use the supported SFP transceiver (PN x2123a), which provides a RJ-45 interface. This is a 1 Gbps-only transceiver and the speed must be changed to 1 Gbps on the appropriate port (see the following example).
![]() | Caution - When using 1 Gbps mode, autonegotiation must be disabled on the link-partner. The link-partner must be configured in 1 Gbps-Forced-FDX mode. |
For example, to configure ports 21 and 22:
SEFOS# config terminal SEFOS(config)# interface range extreme-ethernet 0/21-22 SEFOS(config-if)# shutdown SEFOS(config-if)# speed 1000 SEFOS(config-if)# no shutdown SEFOS(config-if)# end SEFOS# write startup-config
