DS1404092 - Nortel 48-Port 10/100/1000Base-TX Expansion Module

Product Description

The Nortel 48-Port 10/100/1000Base-TX Expansion Module, identified by part number DS1404092, is a high-density networking component designed to augment the capabilities of compatible Nortel switch platforms. This module significantly increases the number of available Gigabit Ethernet ports within a single switch chassis, offering forty-eight RJ-45 connectors that support auto-negotiation for speeds of 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, and 1000 Mbps (Gigabit Ethernet). This makes it an excellent solution for expanding network access in environments with a large number of connected devices. This expansion module is engineered to provide robust and reliable connectivity for enterprise and campus networks. It allows for the connection of numerous workstations, servers, IP phones, wireless access points, and other network-enabled devices, all operating at Gigabit speeds. The high port density reduces the need for multiple smaller switches, simplifying network architecture, reducing cabling complexity, and potentially lowering overall power consumption and rack space requirements. The Nortel DS1404092 module is a key component for organizations looking to scale their network infrastructure efficiently. By adding this module to a compatible Nortel switch, IT managers can easily increase port capacity, support growing user bases, and ensure that end devices have access to the high-speed network resources they require. Its design focuses on delivering performance, reliability, and ease of deployment for modern enterprise networking needs.
