Serial management interface (DB9 Console port)
The serial management interface allows you to configure and manage the device
using a third-party terminal emulation application on a directly-connected PC. A
straight-through EIA or TIA DB9 serial cable ships with the device. The serial
management interface (DB9
Console port) is located on the left side of the front
panel.
Out-of-band 10/100/1000 MbE RJ45 management interface
The out-of-band 10/100/1000 MbE RJ45 management interface enables you to
configure and manage the device on an Ethernet management network. The device
can be managed using a variety of methods including the CLI via Telnet or SSH,
using the web-based GUI via HTTP/HTTPS, and 3rd party SNMP applications
such as IBM Systems Director.
Note: This port interfaces with the CPU only and not the data plane.
Network interfaces for 4002-Y2B and 4002-Y4B
The 4002-Y2B and 4002-Y4B models contain the following interfaces:
v 10/100/1000 MbE ports with RJ45 copper connectors
v
100/1000 MbE ports with mini-GBIC slots for MSA-compliant SFP transceivers

Network interfaces for 4002-Y2A, Y4A, Y2C, and Y4C
The 4002-Y2A ,Y4A, Y2C, and Y4C models contain the following interfaces:
v 10/100/1000 ports with RJ45 copper connectors
v
100/1000 ports with mini-GBIC slots for MSA-compliant SFP transceivers
v Optional 4-port 100/1000 MbE SFP module
v
Optional 4-port 10 GbE SFP+ module
IBM y-series 10/100/1000 BASE-T ports: The RJ45 ports operate at 10 Mbps or
100 Mbps, half or full duplex, or at 1000 Mbps, full duplex. Because all ports
support automatic MDI or MDI-X operation, you can use straight-through cables
for all network connections to PCs or servers, or to other switches or hubs. In
addition, it is ideal and preferred to use straight-through cable for switch-to-switch
connections.
Each of these ports supports auto-negotiation, so the optimum transmission mode
(half or full duplex), and the data rate (10, 100, or 1000 Mbps) can be selected
automatically. If a device connected to one of these ports does not support
auto-negotiation, the communication mode of the port can be configured manually.
Combination ports: The y-series devices can contain four combination ports,
which are four Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP) network interfaces (1F~4F) that
are shared with four of the RJ45 ports (ports 1~4). In the default configuration, if
an SFP transceiver is installed in a slot and has a valid link on its port, the
associated RJ45 port is disabled and cannot be used. The switch can also be
configured to force the use of a combination RJ45 port or SFP slot, as required.
Note:
The 4002-Y2A, Y4A, Y2C, and Y4C devices do not ship with SFP ports. You
can install an optional 4-port 10/100/1000 MbE SFP module which operate
as combination ports, or an optional 4-port 10 GbE SFP+ module which
