Warning Ultimate disposal of this product should be handled according to all national laws

and regulations.

Following Basic Electrical Safety Guidelines

When working with electrical equipment, exercise these basic safety guidelines:

• Never install equipment that appears to be damaged.

• Locate the emergencypower-offswitch for the room in which you are working before beginning

any procedures that require access to the chassis interior.

• Disconnect all power and external cables before installing or removing a chassis.

• Do not work alone when potentially hazardous conditions exist.

6 Catalyst 5000 Series Supervisor Engine III G Installation and Conﬁguration Note

• Never assume that power has been disconnected from a circuit; always check.

• Do not perform any action that creates a potential hazard to people or makes the equipment

• Examine your work area carefully for possible hazards such as moist ﬂoors, ungrounded power

Warning Do not work on the system or connect or disconnect cables during periods of

lightning activity.

Preventing ESD Damage

ESD damage occurs when electronic modules or components are improperly handled and can result in complete or intermittent failures. To prevent ESD damage, follow these guidelines:

• Always use an ESD-preventive wrist or ankle strap and ensure that it makes good skin contact.

• When handling modules orcoming into contactwith any internal components, always use a wrist

strap connected to one of the following:

— Captive installation screws on an installed module or power supply — ESD wrist strap connector — Any unpainted surface on the chassis

• Handle modules by the edges only.

• Avoid contact between the modules and clothing. The wrist strap protects only the module from

ESD voltages on the body; ESD voltages on clothing can still cause damage.

• After removing a supervisor engine, place it on an antistatic surface or in a static-shielding bag.

If you plan to return the module to the factory, immediately place it in a static-shielding bag.

Caution Periodically check the resistance valueof the antistatic strap. The measurement should be

between 1 and 10 megohms (Mohms).

Removing and Replacing the Supervisor Engine

Note To support supervisor engine redundant operation, both the supervisor engines must be

Supervisor Engine III Gs.

Note Catalyst 5505, Catalyst 5509, and Catalyst 5500 switches—When two supervisor engines

are installed, hot swapping allows you to remove and replace one of the supervisor engines without turning off the system power.

Avoiding Problems When Inserting and Removing Modules

The ejector levers on the supervisor engine align and seat the supervisor engine connectors in the backplane. (See Figure 3.)If you failto use the ejector levers to insert the supervisorengine, you can disrupt the order in which the pins make contact with the backplane. When removing a supervisor

capable of asynchronous transmission.

Before connecting the console port, check the terminal documentation to determine the baud rate. The baud rate of the terminal must match the default baud rate (9600 baud) of the console port. Set up the terminal as follows:

• 9600 baud

• 8 data bits

• No parity

• 1 stop bit

Catalyst 5000 Series Supervisor Engine III G Installation and Configuration Note 11

Connecting to the Interface Ports

The Supervisor Engine III G has two GBICs with 1000BaseSX MMF connectors, 1000BaseLX/LH MMF and SMF connectors, or 1000BaseZX connectors (see Figure 5).

The 1000BaseSX MMF, 1000Base LX/LH MMF and SMF, and 1000BaseZX ports operate in full-duplex mode only.

For information on interface cables and equipment, such as Ethernet transceivers, refer to the Catalyst 5000 Series Supervisor Engine Installation Guide.

1000BaseSX, 1000BaseLX/LH, and 1000BaseZX (Single-Mode or Multimode Fiber-Optic Connectors)

Use SC ﬁber-optic connectors (see Figure 5) to connect to the 1000BaseSX, 1000BaseLX/LH, and 1000BaseZX ports. Always keep caps and plugs on the ﬁber-optic connectors on the cable and the switch when they are not in use.

Warning Because invisible laser radiation may be emitted from the aperture of the port when no

cable is connected, avoid exposure to laser radiation and do not stare into open apertures.

Use a SC-type single-mode (ﬁber) connector, shown in Figure 5, to connect the Gigabit Ethernet module ports with the external network. Connect the Gigabit Ethernet interface cables to the appropriate Ethernet network connector.

When using the LX/LH GBIC with 62.5-micron diameter MMF, you must install a mode-conditioning patch cord (Cisco product number CAB-GELX-625 or equivalent) between the GBIC and the MMF cable on both the transmit and receive ends of the link. The patch cord is required for link distances greater than 984 feet (300 m). Refer to the Catalyst 5000 Series Supervisor Engine Installation Guide for more information on patch cords.

Catalyst 5000 Series Supervisor Engine III G Installation and Configuration Note 13

Verifying System Operation

Note The mode-conditioning patch cord is required to comply with IEEE standards. The IEEE

found that link distances could not be met with certain types of ﬁber-optic cable due to a problem in the center of some ﬁber-optic cable cores. The solution is to launch light from the laser at a precise offset from the center by using the mode-conditioning patch cord. At the output of the patch cord, the LX/LH GBIC is compliant with IEEE 802.3z standard for 1000BaseLX.

Verifying System Operation

When all interfaces are connected, check all connections, and then follow these steps to verify that the switch is operational:

Step 1 Check the console terminal and make sure it is on. Step 2 Verify that the appropriate PS1 and PS2 LEDs on the supervisor engine front panel are

green.

Step 3 While the system initializes, check that the SYSTEM STATUS LED on the supervisor

engine is orange until the boot is complete.

Step 4 Some interface LEDs might go on or blink for a short time. Some LEDs, such as the Link

LED, stay on during the entire boot process. If an interface is already conﬁgured, the LEDs might be on steadily as they detect trafﬁc on the line. Wait until the system boot is complete before attempting to verify the switching module LED indications.

Note Catalyst 5505, Catalyst 5509, and Catalyst 5500—If you have a redundant

supervisor engine, refer to the Catalyst 5000 Series Installation Guide for a detailed description of supervisor engine operation in a redundant conﬁguration. By default, the supervisor engine in slot 1 is the active supervisor; the second supervisor in slot 2 is the standby supervisor.

Note Many of the switching module LEDs are not on until you conﬁgure the interfaces.

Step 5 When the system boot is complete (it takes a few seconds), the supervisor engine begins

to initialize the switching modules. During this initialization, the LEDs on each switching module behave differently (most

ﬂash on and off). The Status LED on each switching module goes on when initialization is complete, and the console screen displays a script and system banner.

Note When switching module LEDs are on, this does not necessarily mean that the

interface ports are functional or enabled. Although the LEDs for many interface types go on at the initial system startup, they do not indicate an accurate status until the interface is conﬁgured. For detailed module-speciﬁc LED descriptions, refer to the Catalyst 5000 Series Module Installation Guide.
