Network Ports
Standard shielded CAT5e or CAT6 (or higher) Ethernet cables with RJ45 jacks are
used for connecting the Acme Packet 4500 management Ethernet ports to your
network. These ports support 10/100/1000 Mbps speeds.
Note: Keep Ethernet cables separated from power cables by at least
60mm where possible and never run them in the same channel of a
trunking system without segregation.
Cabling Procedure To connect Ethernet cables to the rear panel Ethernet ports:
1. Locate the Ethernet cables you plan to connect to the Acme Packet 4500.
2. Insert the RJ45 connector on the end of the Ethernet cable into one of the NIU
management Ethernet ports. These ports are labeled
Mgmt0 , Mgmt1 , and
Mgmt2 . The release tab on the RJ45 jack will click into place when you insert it
properly.
