1.2. Interfaces and Ports
This section is an overview of the W30 product's external design.
Figure 1.2. Clavister W30 Connection Ports
The W30 features the following connection ports on the front panel:
• 6 x RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet interfaces with the logical cOS Core names G1, G2, G3, G4, G5, and
G6.
• An RS-232 RJ45 port for console connection marked with the letter C. This port is used for
direct access to the cOS Core
Boot Menu and the cOS Core Command Line Interface (CLI).
• A single Ethernet interface expansion slot on the far right of the front panel. In a new unit,
this slot is covered with a removable grill as shown in the image above. An expansion module
can be ordered separately for this slot and the following module options are available:
i. 8 x RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet interfaces.
ii. 8 x SFP Gigabit interfaces.
iii. 2 x SFP+ 10 Gigabit interfaces.
Module installation is discussed in Chapter 5, Interface Expansion Modules .
Note: The two USB Type A ports are not currently used
The two USB Type A ports on the W30 front panel are for future functionality and are
not currently used by cOS Core.
All the Ethernet interface ports function independently of each other and are not connected by a
switch fabric. All are capable of link speed auto-negotiation and can operate using 10Base-T,
100Base-Tx, or 1000Base-T. The interfaces names are written by each interface.
