Cisco Catalyst 9124AX - Interfaces

[williamrg]

Hello,

On the below C9124AX Datasheet, I see that the Catalyst 9124AX has a downlink and uplink interface.

Catalyst 9124AXI, 9124AXD

●  1x 100/1000/2500 BASE-T (Ethernet) uplink interface

●  1x Gigabit Ethernet SFP

●  1x 10/100/1000 BASE-T (Ethernet) downlink interface

What exactly is the purpose of the 1G downlink?

Can it be used for another endpoint?

or is it required to use both uplink and downlink interfaces to take full advantage of this model's WiFi 6? 

Thank you,

WG

The port is used for daisy-chain to another device (with PoE out)
