The 3Com 3C17221 is a 1-port 1000Base-SX expansion module for the 3Com SuperStack 3 Switch 4400 family, including the Switch 4400, Switch 4400 FX, Switch 4400 PWR and Switch 4400 SE. It fits into the switch’s rear expansion slot and adds a single multimode fibre Gigabit Ethernet port, giving a 4400 access switch a resilient, high-performance uplink to the backbone or an inter-workgroup link where copper Gigabit isn’t practical because of distance or electrical noise.
This sits alongside the 3C17220 (1000Base-T copper) and 3C17222 (100Base-FX) modules in the same expansion slot, so a site can pick copper Gigabit, fibre Gigabit or Fast Ethernet fibre depending on what each individual 4400 unit needs to connect to. The module installs without tools into the existing expansion bay and does not require reconfiguration of the switch beyond enabling the port. It’s a common upgrade for sites running a SuperStack 3 Switch 4400 as a wiring-closet access switch that need a fibre Gigabit backbone connection.
It’s a good match for organisations maintaining an existing 4400 estate who need matching hardware for expansion, redundancy or like-for-like replacement.
