The PM is a removable module that provides scanning and management capabilities for
patch panels or fiber trays. The PM includes LAN connectors for daisy chaining multiple
PMs. A total of 30 PMs may be daisy chained to access the network via a single LAN
port. An expansion port extends management capabilities and power from the PM to 1,
2, 3, or 4 EMs.
The back of PM has a label showing the MAC Address of the Module. Make a note of
the MAC Address or Bar Code Scanner – it is needed for a later step to log into this
module via the Web UI.
