: The Gigabit interface is not user-replaceable. Do not remove the port
cover plate.
Serial Console port
This port is for connecting a local management console. It is required to access
the text-based Command-Line Interface (CLI) for initial configuration of the 800-E
Access Multiplexer. The CLI can also be used for switch management and
troubleshooting.
The port accepts an RS-232 serial cable, an RJ-45 male connector. See “Serial
Console Port” on page 39 for more port and cable specifications.
See the ArubaOS User’s Guide for information on using the features available
through this port.
Fans/heat exhaust (on side)
Three independent fans promote proper air circulation for cooling the 800-E
Access Multiplexer.
During operation, the air vents on the left and right sides of the chassis must
remain unobstructed by cables or mounting equipment. For proper air circulation,
leave at least 10 cm (4 inches) of clearance on the left and right of the chassis.
Holes for attaching rack mounting brackets (on side)
Power Input Socket (on back)
The power input socket on the back of the switch accepts a power cord with a
standard IEC320 connector. For proper safety and performance, the power cord
must be rated to 10 A and conform to grounded electrical standards in the
country where the product is operated.
