The GBIC bay accommodates a standard GBIC module, such as the NETGEAR AGM721F 1000BASE-SX
GBIC module. This module has an SC connector that is compatible with the IEEE 802.3z 1000BASE-SX
standard.

LED Descriptions

The front panel of the NETGEAR Model FSM726S/FSM750S Managed Stackable Switch has LEDs that
provide a quick and accurate display of port speed, activity, collisions, and duplex mode. The Gigabit
Ethernet ports also have LEDs that show link and mode status. Table 2-1 summarizes the LEDs on the
switch and Gigabit Ethernet module.

Console Port

Your NETGEAR Model FSM726S/FSM750S Managed Stackable Switch has a console port on the front
panel. This port is labeled Console and is required for initial management configuration of the switch.
It also lets you manage the switch using a directly connected VT-100 terminal, personal computer (PC),
Apple Macintosh, or UNIX workstation. The terminal, computer, or workstation connects to the console port
using the null-modem cable supplied with your switch.
