Through the Console Port
The serial port's configuration requirements are as follows: 115200 bps, 8 characters, no parity, one stop bit, 8 data bits, and no
flow control.
You can log in to the command-line interface (CLI) using default settings: User "admin" with password "admin".
See the
Connecting to the Console Port
section on page 34 for more information.
1.
Connect console cable to switch's Console port.
2.
Connect console cable to PC's DB-9 COM port.
For information on initial switch configuration, refer to the CLI Reference Guide.
Install Transceivers and Connect Cables
Install SFP transceivers and connect network cables to port interfaces:
For RJ-45 ports, use 100-ohm category 3 or better Ethernet cable for 10BASE-T connections, use 100-ohm category 5 or
better Ethernet cable for 100BASE-TX and 1000BASE-T connections.
Install SFP transceivers and then connect fiber optic cabling to the transceiver ports.
As connections are made, check the port status LEDs to be sure the links are valid.
See the
section on page 29 for more information.
1.
10/100/1000BASE-T RJ-45 Port.
2.
Twisted-pair Cable with RJ-45 Plug.
Switch Chassis
The switch is designed to be installed in a standard 19-inch equipment rack.
General Installation Guidelines
Be sure to follow the guidelines below when choosing a location. The installation location should conform to the following criteria:
Be able to maintain its temperature within 0 to 50°C/32 to 122°F (0 to 40°C/ 32 to 104°F) and its humidity within 10% to
90%, non- condensing.
Provide adequate space (approximately five centimeters or two inches) on all sides for proper air flow.
Be accessible for installing, cabling and maintaining the device.
Allow the status LEDs to be clearly visible.
Make sure twisted-pair cable is always routed away from power lines, fluorescent lighting fixtures and other sources of
electrical interference, such as radios and transmitters.
Make sure that the unit is connected to a separate grounded power outlet and is powered from an independent circuit
breaker. As with any equipment, using a filter or surge suppressor is recommended. Verify that the external AC power
requirements for the switch can be met as listed under the
