Supported Devices
The 8H02-16, 2E42-27, 2E42-27R, 2E43-27, and
2E43-27R SmartSwitch Modules are all high
performance Ethernet switching devices that
provide Fast Ethernet uplinks.
The 8H02-16 is a 16-port device having 14
standard 10Base-T front panel ports that are
supported by RJ-45 connectors and two 100Base-
TX or multi-mode fiber 100Base-FX uplinks using
Fast Ethernet Port Interface Modules.
The 2E42-27 and 2E42-27R devices expand the
capabilities of the 8H02-16 by providing 27 ports
including 24 standard Ethernet ports with RJ-45
connectors, two slots for Fast Ethernet Port
Interface Modules, and one slot for a High Speed
Interface Module to provide a high-speed ATM
uplink or FDDI connectivity. The 2E42-27 has a
single power supply and the 2E42-27R has dual
redundant power supplies.
The 2E43-27 and 2E43-27R provide the same
feature set as the 2E42-27 and 2E42-27R but
come equipped with two RJ21 connectors to
support 24 ports of switched Ethernet rather than
the 24 RJ45’s. This allows the use of Telco cables
in the wiring closets with patch panels to reduce
the complexity of cable management.
All five devices offer RMON, port redirection,
broadcast suppression, and full duplex support
on all interfaces, with support for IEEE Auto-
Negotiation on the 100Base-TX ports.
The SPECTRUM Model
Modeling results in the creation of Device icons
that represent the devices and Application icons
that represent their supported applications.
When modeling a device, the model type SS8H
appears in the Select Model Type dialog box. The
names listed below refer to the model names used
in SPECTRUM to specify attributes, actions, and
associations for SmartSwitch Modules:
• 8H02_16 (SmartSwitch Module, Model 8H02-
16)
• 2E42_27 (SmartSwitch Module, Model 2E42-
27)
• 2E42_27R (SmartSwitch Module, Model
2E42-27R)
• 2E43_27 (SmartSwitch Module, Model 2E43-
27)
• 2E43_27R (SmartSwitch Module, Model
2E43-27R)
