SAFETY INFORMATION
CLASS 1 LASER TRANSCEIVERS
The 6A-IOM-29-4, 6A-IOM-29-4-IR, 6A-IOM-29-4-LR, 6A-IOM-39-1 and 6A-IOM-39-1-LR connectors use Class 1 Laser transceivers. Read the following safety information before installing or operating the 6A-IOM-29-4.
The Class 1 Laser transceivers use an optical feedback loop to maintain Class 1 operation limits. This control loop eliminates the need for maintenance checks or adjustments. The output is factory set, and does not allow any user adjustment. Class 1 Laser transceivers comply with the following safety standards:
•21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11 U. S. Department of Health and Human Services (FDA)
•IEC Publication 825 (International Electrotechnical Commission)
•CENELEC EN 60825 (European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization)
When operating within their performance limitations, laser transceiver output meets the Class 1 accessible emission limit of all three standards. Class 1 levels of laser radiation are not considered hazardous.
LASER RADIATION AND CONNECTORS
When the connector is in place, all laser radiation remains within the fiber. The maximum amount of radiant power exiting the fiber (under normal conditions) is -12.6dBm or 55 x 10 -6 watts.
Removing the optical connector from the transceiver allows laser radiation to emit directly from the optical port. The maximum radiance from the optical port (under worst case conditions) is 0.8 W cm-2 or 8 x 103 W m-2 sr-1.
Do not use optical instruments to view the laser output. The use of optical instruments to view laser output increases eye hazard. When viewing the output optical port, you must remove power from the network adapter.

FIBER OPTIC PROTECTIVE CAPS
Caution READ BEFORE REMOVING FIBER OPTIC PROTECTIVE CAPS.
Cable assemblies and MMF/SMF ports are shipped with protective caps to prevent contamination. To avoid contamination, replace port caps on all fiber optic devices when not in use.
Cable assemblies and MMF/SMF ports that become contaminated may experience signal loss or difficulty inserting and removing cable assemblies from MMF/SMF ports.
Contamination can be removed from cable assemblies by
•Blowing surfaces with canned duster (Chemtronics p/n ES1270 or equivalent).
•Using a fiber port cleaning swab (Alcoa Fujikura LTS p/n ACT-01 or equivalent) saturated with optical-grade isopropyl alcohol, gently wipe the end surface of ferrules first; then wipe down the sides of both ferrules.
•Blow ferrule surfaces dry with canned duster.
Contamination can be removed from MMF/SMF ports by
•Using the extension tube supplied with canned duster, blow into the optical port, being careful not to allow the extension tube to touch the bottom of the optical port.
•Reconnect cable and check for proper mating. If problems remain, gently wipe out optical port with a DRY fiber port cleaning swab and repeat step 1.
Caution To avoid contamination, replace port caps on all fiber optic devices when not in use.

1 INTRODUCTION
Welcome to the SmartCell 6A000 User Guide. The SmartCell 6A000 ATM switch is a module that fits into the SmartSwitch 6000 chassis. You can install as many as five SmartCell 6A000 switches into a SmartSwitch 6000 chassis (using the 6C305-3 power supply). The module is hot swappable, meaning that you can install and remove it without turning off or disconnecting the chassis. This manual will help you quickly and easily install and configure your SmartCell 6A000 switch.
By performing the steps described in the first two chapters of this manual, your switch will be physically installed, accessible on your Ethernet network, and running either an IP over ATM VLAN or an emulated Ethernet or Token Ring LAN.
Subsequent chapters provide information about switch use, maintenance, and problem solving. These topics include
•Managing the switch: backing up configurations, adding routes, creating PVC connections, upgrading software, dealing with bandwidth, and controlling congestion
•Working with the switch’s hardware components
•Troubleshooting
Note For detailed descriptions of SmartCell 6A000 console commands and their use, see the SmartCell 6A000/ZX-250 Reference Manual.

If you don’t specify parameters with the command, the console prompts you for an input value and provides a default value displayed in parenthesis. For example, if you enter show portconfig without specifying a port (as a parameter), the following appears. Here, the default of “ all” ports is presented. You can either accept the default by pressing Enter, or you can enter a specific port number. Taking the default displays the following:
SmartCell ZX # show portconfig |

Switch Installation and Setup |
2p›F When you accept the (all) default for show, the information displayed is often abridged.
2.5.2Console Time-out
The console can be configured to exit if it does not sense a key stroke within a defined length of time. By default, the SmartCell 6A000 is set to never time-out (value = 0). To activate the time-out feature, use the set ConsoleTimeOut command to adjust the time-out period:
SmartCell ZX # set consoletimeout
Timeout(0) |
: 30 <Will time-out in 30 minutes without input |
Confirm (y/N)? : y
SmartCell ZX #
2.5.3Creating an Alias
Use the add alias command to create shorter or easier-to-remember names for command lines. For example:
SmartCell |
ZX # add alias |
|
AliasName() |
: traffic |
|
AliasedString() |
: set switchtrafficcongestion |
|
SmartCell |
ZX # |
|
The above example creates an alias (traffic) that can be entered in place of the command set
SwitchTrafficCongestion. For example:
SmartCell ZX # traffic |
|
Queue1EFCIThreshold(4096) |
: |
Queue2EFCIThreshold(4096) |
: |
Queue3EFCIThreshold(4096) |

2.5.4Ambiguous Commands
If you enter part of a command, and that part is not unique, the console displays a numbered list of possible matching commands. For example, entering show pnnin is ambiguous because there are several commands that start with “pnnin.” In response, the SmartCell 6A000 displays a list of the possible commands:
SmartCell ZX # show pnnin |
< “pnnin” is ambiguous |
