Cabling Network Management (INT/EXT/NET MGT) Ports
Standard shielded CAT5e or CAT6 (or higher) Ethernet cables with RJ45 jacks are used for
connecting the Acme Packet 1100 network management Ethernet ports to your network. These
ports support 10/100 Mbps speeds. For more information about the network management ports,
see the descriptive sections in this document with respect to the INT, EXT and NET MGT
ports.
Network Management Cabling Procedure
To connect Ethernet cables to the network management ports:
1.
Locate the Ethernet cables you plan to connect to the Acme Packet 1100.
2.
Insert the RJ45 connector on the end of the Ethernet cable into one of the network
management Ethernet ports. These ports are labeled NET MGT, INT, and EXT. The release
tab on the RJ45 jack will click into place when you insert it properly into the port.
