A.27.1 Functional Details 
FSW103 is a card based switch. The face has three 10/100Base electrical UTP and one SFP optical for 
100Base-FX transceiver. The card’s golden header provides power and management from the Platform Chassis 
and also has electrical Ethernet port which can be used by FRM220A-GSW/SNMP to aggregate Ethernet from all 
installed cards. 
FSW103 can be managed stand-alone when placed in single slot chassis with console port. When placed in a 
managed chassis, all functions are controlled from the management card in the chassis. Any settings previously 
done in stand-alone are overridden by management card.
