Connector Specifications
This section contains the following:
10/100/1000 Ports
The 10/100/1000 Ethernet ports on the switches use RJ-45 connectors. The following figure shows the pinouts.
Connector pins 1, 2, 3, and 6 are used for PoE.
SFP Module Connectors
The following figure shows a LC style connector that is used with the SFP Module slots. It is a fiber-optic cable connector.
Warning |
Invisible laser radiation may be emitted from disconnected fibers or connectors. Do not stare into beams or view directly with optical instruments. Statement 1051 |
Console Port
The switch has two console ports: a USB 5-pin mini-Type B port (see the following figure) and an RJ-45 (RS-232) console port.
The USB console port uses a USB Type A to 5-pin mini-Type B cable. The USB Type A-to-USB mini-Type B cable is not supplied. You can order an accessory kit that contains this cable.
Note |
When running Linux, access the USB Console using Minicom instead of Screen. |
The RJ-45 console port uses an 8-pin RJ-45 connector. An RJ-45-to-DB-9 adapter cable is used to connect the console port of the switch to a console PC. You need to provide a RJ-45-to-DB-25 female DTE adapter if you want to connect the switch console port to a terminal. You can order a kit (part number ACS-DSBUASYN=) containing that adapter. For console port and adapter pinout information, see Console Ports.
Alarm Port
The alarm port uses an RJ-45 connector. See 100/1000 SFP Ports for more information. For information on alarm ratings, see Alarm Ratings.
