Front-Panel Description
The front panel of the Catalyst 3508G XL switch (Figure 1-2) has eight
1000BaseX GBIC module slots but no 10/100 ports. The front panel of the

Figure 1-5, and Figure 1-6) have 10/100 RJ-45 ports and two 1000BaseX GBIC
module slots. All Catalyst 3500 XL switches have a set of LEDs and a Mode
button. (The Catalyst 3548 XL switch has a Mode label that you press.) These
front-panel components are described in this section.
