with an RJ45 connector into the port.

Connect to Dual-purpose Uplink (10/100/1000 and SFP Fiber) Ports
The switches have two dual-purpose uplink ports. Each dual-purpose uplink
port has a 10/100/1000 RJ45 connector for a copper interface, and a slot for
an SFP module.
Only one port of each dual-purpose port can be active at a time. If an SFP
module port is connected, the SFP module port has priority.
