Overview of the 3534 Model F08
The 3534 Model F08 is an 8-port, dual-speed, auto-sensing Fibre Channel switch. It
supports link speeds up to 2 Gbps and is compatible and interoperable with the
current series of 2109 and 3534 switches. It can operate as the only switch in the
fabric or in a fabric that contains multiple switches.
The 3534 Model F08 has an air-cooled chassis that you can install either as a
stand-alone unit or mount in a 1U 48.26 cm (19 in.) rack. It includes the following
features:
v
Eight optical ports, each with two light-emitting diodes (LEDs). One LED indicates
port status and the other LED indicates link speed.
v
Automatic negotiation to the highest common speed of all devices that are
connected to a particular port. The ports are:
– Compatible with small form-factor pluggable media (SFP)
– Universal and self-configuring
– Capable of individually becoming a fabric enabled port (F_port), a fabric loop
enabled port (FL_port), or an expansion port (E_port)
v
One serial port with an RS-232 connector
v
One 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps Ethernet port with an RJ-45 connector and two LEDs.
One LED indicates port status and the other LED indicates link speed.
v
Two switch status LEDs, one on the front panel and one on the back, which
indicate the overall status of the switch
v
One power supply without an ac switch
v
Five fan assemblies
Note: The 3534 Model F08 contains no serviceable parts except the SFPs. See
Chapter 4, “Replacing an SFP”, on page 31.
In addition, each 3534 Model F08 package includes:
v
One 3.048 m (10 ft) RS-232 serial cable, which you can convert to an RJ-45
connector by removing the adapter on the end of the cable
v
One 1.8288 m (6 ft) power cable
v
Four rubber-mounting feet, which you can use if you are installing the switch as a
stand-alone unit
v
One power-cable extender
v
One rack-mount kit, which you can use if you are installing the switch in a rack.
See Table 3 on page 17 for a list of the parts included in the kit.
