Safety warnings appear throughout this note in procedures that may harm you if performed incorrectly. A warning symbol precedes each warning statement.
All Catalyst 5000 family switches support hot swapping, which lets you install, remove, replace, and rearrange Ethernet switching modules without turning off the system power. When the system detects that a switching module has been installed or removed, it runs diagnostic and discovery routines automatically, acknowledges the presence or absence of the module, and resumes system operation with no operator intervention.
This section is divided into the following topics:
These tools are required to install switching modules in the Catalyst 5000 family switches:
Note Whenever you handle switching modules, you should use a wrist strap or other grounding device to prevent ESD damage.
To remove a switching module from a Catalyst 5000 family switch, perform these steps:
Step 2 Loosen the captive installation screws, as shown in Figure 1.
Step 3 Grasp the left and right ejector levers and simultaneously pivot the levers outward to release the switching module from the backplane connector. Figure 1 shows a close-up of the right ejector lever.
Step 4 Grasp the switching-module front panel with one hand and place your other hand under the carrier to support and guide it out of the slot. Do not touch the printed circuit boards or connector pins.
Step 5 Carefully pull the switching module straight out of the slot, keeping your other hand under the carrier to guide it.
Step 6 Place the switching module on an antistatic mat or antistatic foam, or immediately install it in another slot.
Step 7 If the slot is to remain empty, install a switching-module filler plate (part number 800-00292-01) to keep dust out of the chassis, to maintain proper airflow through the switching-module compartment, and to prevent exposure to hazardous voltages and current.
All Catalyst 5000 family switching modules are installed in horizontal chassis slots that are numbered from top to bottom. Figure 2 shows an example of slot numbering on the Catalyst 5505 switch. The slot numbering for all of the other Catalyst 5000 family switches is similar to that shown in Figure 2.
To install a switching module in a Catalyst 5000 family switch, perform these steps:
Note The 10BaseT 48 port Ethernet switching module (WS-X5014) occupies two slots.
Step 2 Loosen the captive installation screws securing the switching-module filler plate (or the existing switching module) to the desired slot.
Step 3 Remove the switching-module filler plate (or the existing switching module). Save the switching-module filler plate for future use.
Note If you are removing an existing switching module, see to the "Removing Switching Modules" section.
Step 4 To install the new switching module, hold the switching-module front panel with one hand, and place your other hand under the carrier to support the switching module, as shown in Figure 3. Do not touch the printed circuit boards or connector pins.
Step 5 Align the edges of the switching module carrier with the slot guides on the sides of the switch chassis, as shown in Figure 3 for the Catalyst 5505 switch. Use the same procedure for the other Catalyst 5000 family switches.
Note The WS-X5014 Ethernet switching module requires two slots. When installing the switching module, align the edges of the switching module carrier with the slot guides in the lower of the two slots.
Step 6 Pivot the two module ejector levers out away from the faceplate. The ejector levers are shown pivoted out in Figure 3.
Step 7 Carefully slide the switching module into the slot until the notches on both ejector levers engage the chassis sides.
Step 8 Using the thumb and forefinger of each hand, simultaneously pivot in both ejector levers, as shown in Figure 4, to fully seat the switching module in the backplane connector.
Step 9 Use a screwdriver to tighten the captive installation screws on each end of the switching module faceplate.
Note For the Ethernet switching module (WS-X5014), which occupies two slots, you must tighten all four captive installation screws.
This section describes how to connect the interface cables to the installed switching modules.
Figures 5 through 10 illustrate the connector types used to attach interface cables to the Ethernet and Fast Ethernet modules.
On switching modules using RJ-21 telco connectors, attach the connector to the module and tighten the screws. Secure the right-angle RJ-21 telco connector with a tie wrap to provide strain relief, as shown in Figure 11 and Figure 12.
To secure the RJ-21 180-degree cable connection, engage the connector fully and tighten the two screws on either side of the connector, as shown in Figure 13.
For RJ-45 connectors, plug the interface cable connector into the receptacle on the switching module. Push on the connector until you hear a click, which indicates that the connector is fully inserted and secured in the receptacle.
For the ST and SC connectors, slide the interface cable connector into the switching module receptacle. Make sure that the connector is fully inserted in the receptacle.
The Ethernet modules WS-X5015-MT, WS-X5236-FX-MT, and WS-X5237-FX-MT use the MT-RJ style connector (shown in Figure 10).
When you are connecting MT-RJ cables to a module, make sure you firmly press the connector plug into the socket. The upper edge of the plug must snap into the upper front edge of the socket. You may or may not hear an audible click. Gently pull on the plug to confirm whether or not the plug is locked into the socket. To disconnect the plug from the socket, press down on the raised portion on top of the plug (releasing the latch). You should hear an audible click indicating the latch has released. Carefully pull the plug out of the socket.
Note When you disconnect the fiber-optic cable from the module, grip the body of the connector. Do not grip the connector jacket-sleeve. Gripping the sleeve can, over time, degrade the fiber-optic cable termination in the MT-RJ connector.
Always make sure that you insert the connector completely into the socket. This is especially important when you are making a connection between a module and a long distance (2 km) or a suspected highly attenuated network. If the link LED does not light, try removing the network cable plug and reinserting it firmly into the module socket. It is possible that enough dirt or skin oils have accumulated on the plug faceplate (around the optical-fiber openings) to generate significant attenuation, reducing the optical power levels below threshold levels so that a link cannot be made.
To clean the MT-RJ plug faceplate:
Step 2 Carefully wipe the faceplate with a dry lint-free tissue.
Step 3 Remove any residual dust from the faceplate with compressed air before installing the cable.
Note Make sure that dust caps are installed on all unused module connectors and unused network fiber-optic cable connectors.
Check the status of the switching module as follows:
This section lists the default configurations of the Ethernet and Fast Ethernet switching modules and gives you an overview of the commands you can use to customize your configuration. For complete information on configuring your Ethernet or Fast Ethernet switching modules, refer to the Software Configuration Guide for your switch.
The features you can customize have default values that will probably suit your environment and will not need to be changed. Table 6 shows the default values of these features.
| Feature | Default Setting |
|---|---|
Flow control set to off for receive (Rx) and on for transmit (Tx) |
|
| 1In software release 2.4 and earlier, the port cost for 100BaseTX is 10. |
The following sections briefly describe the commands you need to configure the features on the Ethernet and Fast Ethernet switching modules:
Note Both port speed and port duplex mode features default to auto (autonegotiation). To customize the two features, you must first set the port speed to 10 or 100 before you set the port duplex mode to half or full duplex. You cannot have one feature set to auto and the other feature set to a fixed value.
Note The set port duplex mode is not valid on the group switching Ethernet module (WS-X5020) and the group switching Fast Ethernet module (WS-X5223).
For complete information on configuring your Ethernet or Fast Ethernet switching modules, refer to the Software Configuration Guide for your switch.

To assign a name to a port, perform this task in privileged mode:
This example shows how to set the name for ports 1/1 and 1/2 and how to verify that the port names are configured correctly:
You can configure the priority level of each port. When ports request access to the switching bus simultaneously, the switch uses the port priority level to determine the order in which ports are given access.
To set the port priority level, perform this task in privileged mode:
| Task | Command |
|---|---|
| Step 1. Configure the priority level for a port. | |
| Step 2. Verify that the port priority level is configured correctly. |
This example shows how to set the port priority level to high for port 1/1 and verify that the port priority is configured correctly:
You can configure the port speed on 10/100-Mbps Fast Ethernet modules. Use the auto keyword to have the port autonegotiate speed and duplex mode with the neighboring port.
Note If the port speed is set to auto on a 10/100-Mbps Fast Ethernet port, both speed and duplex are autonegotiated.
To set the port speed for a 10/100-Mbps port, perform this task in privileged mode:
| Task | Command |
|---|---|
| Step 1. Set the port speed of a 10/100-Mbps Fast Ethernet port. | |
| Step 2. Verify that the speed of the port is configured correctly. |
This example shows how to set the port speed to 100 Mbps on port 2/2:
This example shows how to make port 2/1 autonegotiate speed and duplex with the neighbor port:
You can set the port duplex mode to full or half duplex for Ethernet and Fast Ethernet ports.
Note If the port speed is set to auto on a 10/100-Mbps Fast Ethernet port, both speed and duplex are autonegotiated. You cannot change the duplex mode of ports configured for autonegotiation. For information on enabling and disabling autonegotiation on 10/100 Fast Ethernet ports, see the "Setting the Port Speed" section on page 19.
To set the duplex mode of a port, perform this task in privileged mode:
