SmartSwitch

Interface Module Installation Guide. This guide is a simple reference for installing and using the 7H02-06 Module. Before installing the module, carefully read this manual to gain a full understanding of its capabilities.

The 7H02-06 Module is a six port Fast Ethernet module that supports 10/100 operation in both half and full duplex. The 7H0206 Module supports auto negotiation allowing it to automatically use the fastest link both it and the attached device are capable of. Connectivity to the ports is provided by 5 RJ45 connectors and one Fast Ethernet Port Interface Module (FEPIM), allowing either Category 5 twisted pair or multimode ﬁber optic cabling. This module connects to a network and the 7X00 SmartSwitch Control Module in the 7C03, 7C04 or 7C04-R MMAC SmartSwitch via a SmartSwitch bus.

Introduction

1.2 THE 7H02-06 MODULE

The 7H02-06 Module provides six Fast Ethernet ports via 5 RJ45 connectors and one FEPIM. The 7H02-06 Module can be installed in:

• The 7C03 MMAC SmartSwitch

• The 7C04 Workgroup SmartSwitch Chassis

• The 7C04-R Workgroup SmartSwitch Redundant Chassis

The 7H02-06 Module has one backplane connection and six front panel connections. The backplane connection provides power to the 7H02-06 Module and a channel for communication with the 7X00 SmartSwitch Control Module. The six front panel ports provide Category 5 Twisted Pair (UTP) and one user conﬁgurable port for UTP or multimode ﬁber optic connectivity (through the FEPIM).

1.2.1 Cable Type and FEPIMs

The 7H02-06 module has six front panel connectors that interface to the 7X00 SmartSwitch through the chassis backplane. 100 Base-TX connections are provided through 5 RJ45s; one FEPIM provides 100 Base-TX (via RJ45) or 100 Base-FX (via multimode SC).

Note:

UTP operates at 10/100 Mbps, while Fiber operates at 100 Mbps.

Both UTP and Fiber are capable of half or full duplex operation.
