1 • General Information
Rear panel
The SmartNode 2300 rear panel is depicted in
figure 10
. There are three expansion slots for optional interface
cards, and four board-mounted sockets. The Status, LINK, and 100Mb/s LEDs indicate the status of the on-
board interfaces (see appendix C,
“Cabling”
on page 142 for connection cable and appendix D,
“Port pin-
outs”
on page 150 for pin-out data).

Expansion slots
The slots labeled SLOT 1, SLOT 2, and SLOT 3 (see
figure 10
) accept different PMC interface cards
to integrate voice and data over IP networks (see section
“Interface cards descriptions”
on page 33 for
more information).
On-board ports
Three motherboard-mounted network interfaces are available for use, independent of those that may be
included with interface cards mounted in SLOT 1, SLOT 2, or SLOT 3. The motherboard-mounted ports are
described in
table 6
(see appendix C,
“Cabling”
on page 142 for connection cable and appendix D,
“Port pin-
outs”
on page 150 for pin-out data).

Port
Description
SERIAL 0/0
(V.35 / X.21)
DB-25 socket providing a V.35 and X.21 interface for leased-lines at up to 2 Mbps. The
LINK LED to the left of the connector indicates its status.
ETH 0/1
(10BaseT)
10Base-T Ethernet RJ-45 socket that connects the SmartNode with an Ethernet device,
such as a wide area transmission modem, Ethernet hub, or switch.
ETH 0/1 is a host
port; it can be connected with a straight-through wired cable to a hub, or a cross-over
cable to a host port. The
LINK LED is lit when the port is connected correctly to an active
Ethernet device.
ETH 0/0
(10/100BaseT)
10/100Base-T Ethernet RJ-45 socket. The interface is similar in function to ETH 0/1
except that it also supports 100Base-T. The
100Mb/s LED is lit when the port is con-
nected correctly to an active 100Base-T Ethernet device.
Console
(RS-232)
RS-232 RJ-45 connector that connects the SmartNode with a serial terminal such as a
PC or workstation with a RS-232 interface, with the following settings:
•
9600 baud, no parity, 8 bit, 1 stop bit, 1 start bit
•
The console port is only used for service and maintenance
