3Com 3C35230 CoreBuilder 3500 6 x Ports 100Base-FX SC Connector Fibre Expansion Module

Description

The 3Com 3C35230 is a modular expansion module specifically designed for the 3Com CoreBuilder 3500 series switches. This module enhances the switch's capabilities by adding six ports that support 100Base-FX Fast Ethernet over multimode fiber optic cabling. The use of fiber optics provides advantages such as extended reach compared to copper cabling and immunity to electromagnetic interference, making it suitable for various enterprise and campus network environments. Each of the six ports on the 3C35230 module operates at 100 Mbps, providing reliable Fast Ethernet connectivity for end devices or for linking to other network segments. The module utilizes SC duplex connectors, a standard interface for fiber optic connections, ensuring a secure and stable physical link. This expansion module is ideal for scenarios requiring multiple fiber connections, such as connecting workstations, servers, or network access points in locations where fiber infrastructure is deployed. By offering a modular approach, the 3C35230 allows network administrators to customize the CoreBuilder 3500 switch to meet specific port requirements without needing to replace the entire switch. This flexibility is crucial for network scalability and cost-effectiveness. The module integrates seamlessly into the switch chassis, allowing for easy installation and management through the switch's control interface.
