PORT AND CABLE ASSIGNMENTS
MX-A5400 series provides the following management port:
RS232 port: suitable for examining the MX-A5400 parameters and some system
configuration by a PC RS232 port.
SNMP: Simple network management protocol.
Before connecting the MX-A5400 series to a port, please read the following
instructions and port connectivity requirements.
a.
Management Port (RJ-45)
i.
Port Description
The MX-A5400 series management port connector type is RJ-45.
Figure 4.1.1 RJ–45 Connector Plug and Socket
The Management port (RJ-45) can be connected to any device that uses
a standard network interface (e.g., a workstation, server, bridge or
router). RJ-45 MDI can be connected with similar network equipment
(such as other MX-A5400 or network Hub). Use unshielded twisted-pair
(UTP) or shielded twisted-pair (STP) cable for RJ-45 connections:
100-ohm Category 3, 4 or 5 cable for 10 Mbps connections or 100- ohm
Category 5 cable for 100 Mbps connections. Please ensure that the cable
length does not exceed 100 meters.
ii.
Pin assignment
When a network management cable (RJ-45 connector in each side)
connects NMS PC and the MX-A5400 series directly, it should use a
straight through cable. See Figure 4.1.2.
