Connector and Cable Specifications

Revised: January 12, 2012
This appendix describes the Cisco ME 4924-10GE switch ports and the cables and adapters that you use to connect the switch to other devices.

Connector Specifications

These sections describe the connectors used with the switch.

Connecting to 1000BASE-T Devices

When connecting the ports to 1000BASE-T devices, such as servers, workstations, and routers, you must use a four-twisted-pair, Category 5, straight-through cable wired for 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, and 1000BASE-T.
When connecting the ports to other devices, such as switches or repeaters, you must use a four-twisted-pair, Category 5, crossover cable. Be sure to use a four-twisted-pair, Category 5 cable when connecting to a 1000BASE-T-compatible device.
APPENDIX
B
Note Use a straight-through cable to connect two ports only when one port is designated with an X. Use a
crossover cable to connect two ports when both ports are designated with an X or when both ports do not have an X.

SFP Module Ports

The Cisco ME 4924-10GE switch uses SFP modules for fiber-optic and copper uplink ports. Refer to the Cisco ME 4924-10GE switch release notes for a list of supported SFP modules.

Warning

Console Port

Invisible laser radiation may be emitted from disconnected fibers or connectors. Do not stare into beams or view directly with optical instruments.
Figure B-2 Copper SFP Module RJ-45 Connector
The console port uses an 8-pin RJ-45 connector, which is described in Ta ble B-1 and Table B- 2 . 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 from Cisco.
Note A console cable is not provided in the accessory kit. It can be ordered as an option.

Identifying a Crossover Cable

To identify a rollover cable, compare the two modular ends of the cable. Hold the cable ends side-by-side, with the tab at the back. The wire connected to the pin on the outside of the left plug should be the same color as the wire connected to the pin on the outside of the right plug. (See Figure B-3.)
