Intraconnect Module in EX4500 Switches
The intraconnect module is installed horizontally on the rear of an EX4500 switch chassis. The intraconnect module helps the switch achieve line rate on all its ports. The module comes preinstalled in the switch chassis. It is a field-replaceable unit.
 | Caution: Operating an EX4500 switch without the intraconnect module is not supported. |
