Figure 154: G8Xi module
The G8Xi module has eight unpopulated GBIC-based Gigabit Ethernet ports. All Gigabit Ethernet ports
on these modules use standard GBIC connectors and support 1000BASE-SX, 1000BASE-LX,
1000BASE-LX70, and 1000BASE-ZX.
The default configuration of the G8Xi module is as follows. All ports:
• Are added to the default VLAN as untagged.
• Inherit the properties of the default VLAN (protocol type, VLANid, and so forth).
• Operate in auto-negotiation mode.

• 1000BASE-SX
• 1000BASE-LX
• 1000BASE-LX70
• ZX GBIC
• LX100 GBIC
