Choose the mode your module will work in.
Stand-alone (connected to switch)
Provides a high-speed link between the switch and another device via the fiber optic SC
connector.
Stack mode (connected to matrix module)
This is the default mode when this module is connected to a group of switches (or stack)
via a Matrix Module. The two Stack Interface Module (SIM) connectors enable the module to
be integrated into a group of switches and a stack with redundancy. (A stack containing an
ATM module does not support redundancy.) The fiber optic SC connector or UTP copper cable
provides the high-speed link between the group of switches (or stack) and another stack or
device.
