Fiber optic I/O board LED indications
On the fiber optic I/O boards, the input and
output LEDs on the transceivers light green
when 10G light is detected. The arrow
LEDs point to the input and output port they
represent (see figure 3).
In figure 3, SFP 1 and SFP 5 are examples of
the LEDs that indicate the input and output
port (different colors are used to indicate the
connection only).

Cooling Fan Assembly
Replaceable fan assembly
(see
on page 8) — This removable fan
assembly has multiple fans (see
Removing and Installing a Fan Assembly
to replace the fan assembly).
Ethernet Connection
LAN Ethernet port
— For IP control of the system, connect the matrix switcher
to a PC or an Ethernet LAN via this RJ-45 connector. Use a PC to control the
networked switcher with
on page 18 or
on page 29 from anywhere in the world.
•
Link LED indicator
— The green (link) LED indicates that the switcher is properly
connected to an Ethernet LAN. This LED should light steadily.
•
Act LED indicator
— The yellow (activity) LED indicates transmission of
data packets on the RJ-45 connector. This LED should flicker as the switcher
communicates.
NOTE:
The factory default settings are: IP address =
192.168.254.254
,
Subnet mask =
255.255.255.0
, Gateway =
0.0.0.0
, and DHCP = Off
Cabling
It is vital that the Ethernet cables be the correct cable type and be properly terminated with
the correct pinout. Ethernet links use Category (CAT) 3, 5e, or CAT 6, unshielded twisted
pair (UTP) or shielded twisted pair (STP) cables, terminated with RJ-45 connectors. Ethernet
cables are limited to a length of 328 feet (100 meters).
NOTES:
•
Do not use standard telephone cables. Telephone cables do not support Ethernet.
•
Do not stretch or bend cables. Transmission errors can occur.
The cable used depends on your network speed. The unit supports:
•
10 Mbps (10Base-T — Ethernet) — Requires CAT 3 UTP or STP cable at minimum.
•
100 Mbps (100Base-T — Fast Ethernet) — Requires CAT 5e UTP or STP cable at
minimum.
•
1000 Mbps (1000Base-T — IEEE 802.3ab) half-duplex and full-duplex
Ethernet — Requires CAT 5, CAT 5e, CAT 6, or CAT 7 UTP or STP cable.
