Connectivity
The SecureStack A2 switch connects to Ethernet networks or workstations by way of the
fixed front panel MT‐RJ ports and two uplink ports that support optional Mini‐GBICs.
At the time of this printing, the Mini‐GBICs that are available from Enterasys and
supported by A2 switch are described in
Table 1‐1 . These Mini‐GBICs meet or exceed the
IEEE 802.3z‐1998 standard.
