| Field | Description |
|-|-|
| Power (watts) | Electrical power of the network asset in watts. |
| Weight (lbs) | Weight of the network asset in pounds (lbs). |
| Virtual | Option to verify whether the network interface is physical or virtual. Note: If you select Virtual, then the Connector Type field doesn't appear. |
| Connector Type | Type of physical cable connector that is used for the connection of the cable to the network interface. Select one of the following options: * BNC (Bayonet Neill-Concelman) - Type of miniature radio frequency connector used for coaxial cables. * SC (Square Connector)- Square, common type of Fiber optic connector used as push-pull latch, to align the optical fibers for efficient light transmission. * LC (Lucent Connector)- Another version of the SC connector designed for high-density applications. * ST (Straight Trip)- a type of fiber optic connector commonly used for connecting optical fibers in telecommunications and data communication applications. * Wire Wrap -A technique for creating electrical connections on circuit boards. * RJ45 - Also known as 8P8C (8 Position 8 Contact) connector, is widely used type of connector for wired Ethernet networks. {#network-interface-model-form-information-tab__ul_eqy_4nn_xrb} |
| Max physical connection support | Maximum number of physical connections that is supported by this model. |
| Port bandwidth | Measured bandwidth for the ports on this network interface. Select the search icon ( ![Search icon.]()) and select a bandwidth. |
| Directionality | Type of the connections between the nodes of a network. Select one of the following options: * Tx- TX stands for Transmit. It refers to the direction in which data is being sent from a device. * Rx- RX signifies the endpoint that receives data. It's the input side for receiving information transmitted from another source, often labeled as TX (Transmit). * Tx/Rx * Bus- Bus directionality refers to the flow of data on a communication channel. * Broadcast- Broadcast directionality refers to the nature of signal transmission and reception in a broadcast system. {#network-interface-model-form-information-tab__ul_jch_2sf_ytb} |
| Interface Type | Type of port on the network interface. Select one of the following options: * Ethernet- Physical connection and speed capabilities of a device for connecting to a network. It involves cable type, speed, and standard. * Optical- specific design of a connector used in an optical transceiver. There are various types of optical interfaces, each with different shapes and data speed capabilities. * Serial- A serial interface transmits data one bit at a time, in contrast to a parallel interface that sends multiple bits simultaneously. {#network-interface-model-form-information-tab__ul_nww_rwf_ytb} |
| Port position | Position of a physical or logical port on an equipment. |
