Ethernet Routing Switch 8600 module fundamentals
8630GBR module
The 8630GBR module provides 30 bays for small form factor pluggable
(SFP) transceivers. Use SFPs to provide riser connections, server
attachments, or interswitch links. The 8630GBR module includes three
forwarding engine lanes. Each lane supports 10 Gbps bidirectional traffic.
All 30 ports can run concurrently at 1 Gbps. The following figure shows
the 8630GBR.

.
On the 8630GBR module, if you find that a remote link comes up before
the module is completely initialized, you may have to upgrade the
FPGA firmware image on the module to PIM=769 or later. For upgrade
instructions, see Nortel Ethernet Routing Switch 8600 Upgrades —
Software Release 5.0, NN46205-400.
The 8630GBR module is not supported in the 8003 chassis with Release
4.1 or later.
When a copper GBIC is present in an 8630GBR module port with
Auto-Negotiation disabled, the port is always in an up state, even if no
Ethernet cable is plugged in. Auto-Negotiation must be enabled for GBIC
ports running 1 Gigabit Ethernet. Keep Auto-Negotiation enabled.
The 8630GBR modules support jumbo frames.
The following figure shows the location of the 8630GBR module LEDs.
