10/100/1000 BASE-T ports
10/100/1000 BASE-T ports
All devices provide 24 or 48 RJ-45 ports that operate at 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps half or full duplex, or at
1000 Mbps full duplex. Because all ports support automatic MDI or MDI-X operation, you can use
straight-through cables for all network connections to PCs, servers, or other devices or hubs. In
addition, it is ideal (and preferred) to use straight-through cables for switch-to-switch connections.
Each port supports auto-negotiation, so the optimum transmission mode (half or full duplex), and the
data rate (10, 100, or 1000 Mbps) can be selected automatically. If a device connected to one of these
ports does not support auto-negotiation, the communication mode of the port can be configured
manually.
SFP or SFP+ fiber ports
The ICX 7250-24G contains four small form factor pluggable (SFP) ports (ports 1 through 4). The top
row consists of ports 1 and 3, and the bottom row consists of ports 2 and 4. These ports reside on slot
2 of the switch and can be used as uplink (data) ports. These ports support 1 Gbps but not 10 Gbps
port speeds.
All other ICX 7250 devices contain eight SFP+ ports that support 1 Gbps or 10 Gbps port speeds. The
top row ports are odd numbered (ports 1, 3, 5 and 7) and the bottom row ports are even numbered
(ports 2, 4, 6 and 8). All ports can be used for stacking or up-linking.
NOTE
You may need software licenses to enable some SFP+ ports at the full 10 Gbps. Check the FastIron
Ethernet Switch Software Licensing Guidefor more information.
For information about supported SFP and SFP+ transceivers, refer to the Brocade Optics Family
datasheet.
Specifying a port address
You can specify a port address for an uplink (data) port, a stacking port, or a management port.
Specifying a data port
The port address format is stack_unit/slot/port, where:
• stack_unit --Specifies the stack unit ID. The range is from 1 through the maximum number of
devices supported in a stack. Refer to the technical specifications for your device for the actual
value. If the device is not part of a stack, the stack unit ID is 1.
• slot --Specifies the slot number; either 1 or 2.
• port --Specifies the port number in the slot. The range is from 1 through 24 (24-port models) or 1
through 48 (48-port models) for the RJ-45 ports. For the SFP ports, the range is from 1 through 4,
and for the SFP+ ports, the range is from 1 through 8.
This example shows how to specify port 2 in slot 1 of a device that is not part of a stack:
Brocade (config) # interface ethernet 1/1/2
Specifying a stacking port
The port address format is stack_unit/slot/port where:
16 Brocade ICX 7250 Switch Hardware Installation Guide
53-1003622-02
Specifying a management port
• stack_unit --Specifies the stack unit ID. For models that support stacking, the range is from 1 through
the maximum number of devices (units) that can be supported in the stack.
• slot --Specifies the slot number. Stacking ports are in slot 2.
• port --Specifies the port number in the slot.
This example shows how to specify stacking port 3 in slot 2 of unit 3 in a stack:
Brocade (config) # interface ethernet 3/2/3
Specifying a management port
The management port number is always 1. This example shows how to specify the management port:
Brocade (config) # interface management 1
Port, system, and power status LEDs
The devices include LEDs that indicate the status of device components.
NOTE
Some examples of the port status LEDs are shown below. LEDs for similar ports are present for models
with higher number of ports.

Power supply usage
The device models support specific AC power supply inputs and numbers of PoE and PoE+ ports with
an internal power supply.
NOTE
Depending on the configuration, each EPS4000 connection from the device to the EPS4000 can add
23 ports of PoE (Class 3) or 12 ports of PoE+ power (54-volt supply) in addition to the internal power
supply by providing system power backup. If the overall PoE requirement is less than the power
budget of 360 W (or 720 W), the device can support 24 (or 48) PoE. The system power (12-volt
supply) portion of the EPS can be used for internal system power redundancy.

Lifting precautions
CAUTION
Make sure the airflow around the front, sides, and back of the device is not restricted.
Lifting precautions
DANGER
Make sure the rack housing the device is adequately secured to prevent it from becoming
unstable or falling over.
DANGER
Mount the devices you install in a rack as low as possible. Place the heaviest device at the
bottom and progressively place lighter devices above.
Power precautions
CAUTION
Use a separate branch circuit for each AC power cord, which provides redundancy in case one
of the circuits fails.
CAUTION
Ensure that the device does not overload the power circuits, wiring, and over-current protection.
To determine the possibility of overloading the supply circuits, add the ampere (amp) ratings of
all devices installed on the same circuit as the device. Compare this total with the rating limit for
the circuit. The maximum ampere ratings are usually printed on the devices near the input
power connectors.
DANGER
Disconnect the power cord from all power sources to completely remove power from the device.
DANGER
If the installation requires a different power cord than the one supplied with the device, make
sure you use a power cord displaying the mark of the safety agency that defines the regulations
for power cords in your country. The mark is your assurance that the power cord can be used
safely with the device.
