SPECTRUM Support The 2E43-27 and 2E43-27R provide the same feature set as the 2E42-27 and 2E42-27R but come equipped with two RJ21 connectors to support 24 ports of switched Ethernet rather than the 24 RJ45’s. This allows the use of Telco cables in the wiring closets with patch panels to reduce the complexity of cable management. All five devices offer RMON, port redirection, broadcast suppression, and full duplex support on all interfaces, with support for IEEE Auto-Negotiation
