EMC VNXe3150 Hardware Information Guide

Overview

Table 10

 describes the link/activity and connection speed associated with the SP 1-GB/s 

iSCSI host IP connect (RJ-45) port LEDs.

Network management and service laptop Ethernet (RJ-45) ports

The SP Ethernet (RJ-45) ports are LAN ports not WAN ports. LAN ports contain safety 
extra-low voltage (SELV) circuits, and WAN ports contain telephone-network voltage (TNV) 
circuits. Some LAN and WAN ports both use RJ-45 connectors. Use caution when 
connecting cables. To avoid electric shock, do not connect TNV circuits to SELV circuits.

The VNXe3150 platform SP comes with two integrated dual-port Ethernet ports (labeled 
with a network management symbol and a wrench symbol, respectively). These ports 
provide an interface for connecting to the public LAN and a service laptop computer, 
respectively. The ports are 8-pin MDI RJ-45 type ports for either IEEE 802.3 10Base-T (10 
Mb/s), IEEE 802.3u 100Base-TX (100 Mb/s), or 1000Base-T (1000 Mb/s) Ethernet 
connections.

Figure 19

 shows an example of the SP network management and service laptop Ethernet 

(RJ-45) ports.

Figure 19  Network management and service laptop Ethernet (RJ-45) ports

IMPORTANT

The ports shown in 

Figure 19

 are LAN ports. A symbol depicting a telephone handset with 

a line through it indicates that you should not connect WAN type RJ-45 telephone 
connectors to these ports.
