Cabling the Acme Packet 6100
After mounting the Acme Packet 6100 in an equipment rack and installing all
components into the chassis, connect all appropriate data cables to the ports
before powering the system up and configuring it.
Acme Packet recommends using fully shielded CAT5e or CAT6 Ethernet
cables for NIU media and management Ethernet connections to protect the
Acme Packet 6100 from potential damage.
You can install and remove Ethernet and GigE optical cables while the Acme
Packet 6100 is operational. Not every port needs to be utilized for proper
operation. However, when a cable is disconnected and the link is lost, an alarm
is generated.
Console Port
The Acme Packet 6100 has one console port located on the rear-facing NIU.
The Acme Packet 6100 ships with a console adapter that allows you to connect
a standard DB-9 serial port to the Acme Packet 6100 ’s RJ45 console port.
