OmniSwitch 7700/7800 NIs
OS7-ENI2-C24
Second-generation version of the OmniSwitch 7700/7800 24-port 10/100 copper Ethernet NI module.
Each port uses RJ-45 connectors and supports category 5 Twisted pair cable 100 ohm.
OS7-ENI-C24-UPG
First-generation version of the OmniSwitch 7700/7800 24-port 10/100 copper Ethernet NI module
upgraded for Release 5.1.5. Each port uses RJ-45 connectors and supports category 5 Twisted pair cable
100 ohm.
OS7-ENI-P24
The Ethernet Network Interface (ENI) module is a Power over Ethernet (PoE) module that provides 24
twisted-pair inline power ports, individually configurable as 10BaseT or 100BaseTX. In addition, powered
Devices (PDs) such as IP phones, wireless LAN stations, Ethernet hubs, and other access points can be
