are assigned immediately to P1 and P2 cases to help keep your business operations running smoothly.
viii
To open a case by telephone, use one of the following numbers:
To ensure that all cases are reported in a standard format, Cisco has established case priority definitions.
Priority 1 (P1)—Your network is “down” or there is a critical impact to your business operations. You
and Cisco will commit all necessary resources around the clock to resolve the situation.
Priority 2 (P2)—Operation of an existing network is severely degraded, or significant aspects of your
business operation are negatively affected by inadequate performance of Cisco products. You and Cisco
will commit full-time resources during normal business hours to resolve the situation.
Priority 3 (P3)—Operational performance of your network is impaired, but most business operations
remain functional. You and Cisco will commit resources during normal business hours to restore service
to satisfactory levels.
Priority 4 (P4)—You require information or assistance with Cisco product capabilities, installation, or
configuration. There is little or no effect on your business operations.

Port Adapter Overview
CHAPTER
1
ThePA-2FEISL, shown in Figure 1-1, provides two 100-Mbps, 100BASE-T Fast Ethernet/ISL interfaces
for the VLAN transport over switch-to-switch backbone connections or switch-to-server data center
attachments. These port adapters provide an inter-VLAN bridging and routing functionality that network
administrators can use to deploy 100-Mbps Token Ring VLAN transport, 100-Mbps Ethernet VLAN
transport, and bridging or routing between the mixed LAN types using the same physical ISL trunk links.
Both full-duplex and half-duplex operation are supported for the PA-2FEISL. See the “Fast Ethernet
Overview” section on page 1-2 for additional information.
Both models of the PA-2FEISL (PA-2FEISL-TX and PA-2FEISL-FX) are shown in Figure 1-1 and
Figure 1-2.
NoteAlthough the VIP2, and Catalyst RSM/VIP2 support online insertion and removal (OIR), individual
port adapters do not. To replace port adapters, you must first remove the VIP2 or Catalyst RSM/VIP2
from the chassis, and then replace port adapters as required.
Cisco 7100 series, Cisco 7200 series, and Cisco uBR7200 series routers support OIR of all port adapter
types.

Fast Ethernet Overview
Each Fast Ethernet port on the PA-2FEISL-TX has an RJ-45 connector to attach to Category 5
unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable for 100BASE-TX. Each Fast Ethernet port on the PA-2FEISL-FX
has an SC-type fiber-optic connector for 100BASE-FX.
The term Ethernet is commonly used for all carrier sense multiple access/collision detection
(CSMA/CD) LANs that generally conform to Ethernet specifications, including Fast Ethernet under
IEEE 802.3u.
Note100BASE-TX is intended for Environment A, and 100BASE-FX is intended for Environment B. Both
are described in the IEEE 802.3u standard.
IEEE 802.3u is well suited to applications where a local communication medium must carry sporadic,
occasionally heavy traffic at peak data rates. Stations on a CSMA/CD LAN can access the network at
any time. Before sending data, the station listens to the network to see if it is already in use. If it is in
use, the station waits until the network is not in use, then transmits. This process is known as half-duplex
operation. A collision occurs when two stations listen for network traffic, hear none, and transmit almost
simultaneously. When simultaneous transmission occurs, both transmissions are damaged and the
PA-2FEISL 100BASE-T Fast Ethernet/ISL Port Adapter Installation and Configuration
1-2
OL-3475-02
Chapter 1 Overview
stations must retransmit. The stations detect the collision and use backoff algorithms to determine when
they should retransmit.
Both Ethernet and IEEE 802.3u are broadcast networks, which means that all stations see all
transmissions. Each station must examine received frames to determine whether it is the intended
destination and, if it is, pass the frame to a higher protocol layer for processing.
IEEE 802.3u specifies the following different physical layers for 100BASE-T:
• 100BASE-TX—100BASE-T, half- and full-duplex over Category 5 UTP, Electronics Industry
Association/Telecommunications Industry Association (EIA/TIA)–568-compliant cable
• 100BASE-FX—100BASE-T, half- and full-duplex over optical fiber
Each physical layer protocol has a name that summarizes its characteristics in the format speed/signaling
method/segment length, where speed is the LAN speed in megabits per second (Mbps), signaling method
is the signaling method used (either baseband or broadband), and segment length is the maximum length
between stations in hundreds of meters. Therefore, 100BASE-T specifies a 100-Mbps, baseband LAN
with maximum network segments.
IEEE 802.3u 100BASE-T Specifications
IEEE 802.3u 100BASE-T Specifications
This section provides specifications for IEEE 802.3u 100BASE-T. Table 1-1 provides cabling
specifications for 100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet transmission over UTP and foil twisted-pair (FTP), and
100BASE-FX Fast Ethernet over fiber-optic cables. It also summarizes IEEE 802.3u 100BASE-TX and
100BASE-FX physical characteristics. Also see Figure 1-3.

Cables, Connectors, and Pinouts
The two interface receptacles on the PA-2FEISL are a single RJ-45 connection (on the PA-2FEISL-TX)
or a SC-type optical-fiber connection (on the PA-2FEISL-FX). Each connection supports IEEE 802.3u
interfaces compliant with the 100BASE-X and 100BASE-T standards. The RJ-45 connection does not
require an external transceiver.

TipPorts labeled “Ethernet,” “10BASE-T,” “Token Ring,” “Console,” and “AUX” are safety extra-low
voltage (SELV) circuits. SELV circuits should only be connected to other SELV circuits. Because the
Basic Rate Interface (BRI) circuits are treated like telephone-network voltage, avoid connecting the
SELV circuit to the telephone network voltage circuits.

Cables, Connectors, and Pinouts
NoteReferring to the RJ-45 pinout in Table 1 -3, proper common-mode line terminations should be used for
the unused Category 5, unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable pairs 4/5 and 7/8. Common-mode
termination reduces the contributions to electromagnetic interference (EMI) and susceptibility to
common-mode sources. Wire pairs 4/5 and 7/8 are actively terminated in the RJ-45, 100BASE-TX port
circuitry in the PA-2FEISL-TX.
Depending on your RJ-45 interface cabling requirements, use the pinouts in Figure 1-6 and Figure 1-7.
