Catalyst Switch Module Descriptions
These sections describe the switch modules:
• Catalyst Switch Module 3110G and 3110X, page 4
• Catalyst Switch Module 3012, page 5
The switch module is powered from the blade enclosure backplane. The switch module does not have
a fan. The blade enclosure provides temperature management.
The switch module connects internally to the blade enclosure management module through
100BASE-T Ethernet links. You can manage the switch modules through the IBM advanced
Management Module (aMM) on a management network that is isolated from other switch traffic. You
can also manage the switch module through the console port on the switch module front panel or
through any of the external uplink ports.
