5.
Power on the switch.
6.
Check the LED indicators on the front of the switch to ensure that the module is operating correctly.
Removing Modules
1.
Ensure that the power supply and the backbone connection cables are disconnected from the switch.
2.
Place the switch on a flat surface. Undo the two captive thumbscrews securing the module into the switch.
Do not remove any other screws from the switch.
3.
If you are not installing another module immediately, you must replace the blank module cover to ensure
that dust and debris do not enter the switch, as well as to aid circulation of cooling air.
4.
Loosen the screws on the module.

Connecting the ProSwitch
Any of the modules for the 2600M can be used to:
Connect the switch to the backbone of your network
Connect the switch to a classroom/workgroup hub or switch
Connect the switch to a server or workstation with a fiber NIC
The 2600M switch has been designed to support all standard Ethernet media types within a single switch unit.
The various media types supported along with the corresponding IEEE 802.3 and 802.3u standards and
connector types are as follows:
Fiber:
IEEE Standard
100Base-FX
1000Base-SX
1000Base-LX
Copper:
10Base-T
100Base-TX
1000Base-TX
Note: Since dual-speed ports are auto-sensing for both 10 and 100Mbps, it is recommended that high quality
CAT5E or better cables (which work for both 10Mbps and 100Mbps) be used whenever possible in order to
provide flexibility in a mixed-speed network. Because the switch supports auto MDI/MDI-X detection, normal
straight through cables for both workstation connection and hub or switch connection can be used. All ports are
auto MDI/MDI-X, so you can use any of the ports to connect a port on another hub or switch with straight
through or crossover cables.
