About this Manual

This User Manual is for the Dell 10Gb Ethernet Pass Through II passs through module.

This manual describes the installation and basic use of Dell 10GbE 16 port Pass Through Module for blade servers.

Intended Audience

This manual is intended for users and system administrators responsible for installing and setting up the Dell 10GbE 16 port Pass Through Module for blade servers.

Conventions

The terms downlink (internal–from servers) and uplink (external–out to the world) are used throughout the document. Downlink refers to server connections through the backplane where Ethernet is used. Uplink refers to the outside network, where a different Ethernet protocol is used.

Insert the PTM into the chassis as shown in the following diagram:

Figure 3: Dell Chassis Slots for the PTM

Page 9

Dell -10GbE PTM Rev 1.0

10 Gb Ethernet Pass Through II

The PTM supports hot-insertion into the chassis. If the PTM is inserted to a powered chassis, the power LED (green) should turn on immediately.

2.2.2 PTM Removal

The PTM supports hot-removal. It may be removed when the chassis is powered on or off.

The PTM must not be removed during a firmware update process. Note: Firmware update is in progress when the amber LED is blinking.

2.3 Connecting the External Ports

The PTM front panel presents 16 SFP+ ports. Each port provides connectivity to a server with the respective number. Figure 4 shows the front panel view of the PTM.

Figure 4: Pass Through II Front Panel

2.3.1 10 Gigabit Ethernet SFP+ Modules

The PTM supports SFP+ modules for 10 Gigabit Ethernet, with 10GBASE-SR and 10GBASE-LR PHYs. SFP+ modules must be approved for use with this PTM. Modules not approved may not work. See Supported Optical Modules and DCAs on page 17 for lists of approved DCAs and optical modules.

2.3.2 Installation and Removal of Optical Transceiver Modules

Optical transceiver modules have a locking mechanism which can be opened or closed.

To insert the module into the cage:

1. Open the module’s locking mechanism.

2. Make sure that the male connectors on the module aligns with the female connector inside of the cage. Also check that there is no dirt or foreign matter in the module or in the cage.

3. Insert the module into the adapter card module cage.

4. Close the locking Mechanism.

To remove the module from the cage:

1. Unlock the locking mechanism by opening the handle.

2. Pull the module out of the cage.

2.4 LED Indicators

The IO Module is on and ready when this LED is green.

This LED can be blue or amber. A fault is indicated when the amber LED is blinking. See Table 3.

2.4.1 System LEDs

The system status LEDs indicate whether the PTM is receiving power from the chassis, and the state of the PTM.

There are two system LEDs on the end of the module. The LED indications and meanings are explained in the figure and table below.

2.4.2 Port LEDs

The PTM has two I/O LEDs per port. The I/O LEDs are located on the I/O panel. The green LED, when lit, indicates that the driver is running and a valid physical connection between nodes exists. If the green LED is blinking, it indicates a problem with the physical link. The yellow LED when lit, indicates a valid data activity link, this is the logical link. The yellow LED illuminates when the network is discovered over the physical link. A valid data activity link without data transfer is des-

2.4.4 Mechanical Installation

2.4.4.1 To install the PTM

1. Make sure that there is no foreign matter or dirt in the back plane connector or in the chassis slot.

2. Push the PTM into the chassis. Make sure that the ears on the latch hook onto the latching bar.

3. Push the latch handle towards the orange latch release until it locks.

2.4.4.2 To remove the PTM

1. Push the orange latch release and the latch handle will pop out

2. Pull the handle out until it is 90 degrees from the front of the PTM.

3. Pull the PTM out of the chassis.

2.4.5 Cable Installation

All cables can be inserted or removed with the unit powered on. To insert a cable, press the connector into the port receptacle until the connector is firmly seated. The GREEN LED indicator, above each SFP+ port, will light when the physical connection is established (that is, when the unit is powered on and a cable is plugged into the port with the other end of the connector plugged into a functioning port). After plugging in a cable, lock the connector using the latching mechanism particular to the cable vendor. When a logical connection is made the yellow light will come on. When data is being transferred the yellow light will blink.

Always install and remove cables by pushing or pulling the cable and connector in a straight line with the pass through module.

To remove, disengage the locks and slowly pull the connector away from the port receptacle. Both LED indicators will turn off when the cable is unseated.

Cable lengths should be used which allow for routing horizontally around to the side of the chassis before bending upward or downward in the rack.

Cables, especially long copper cables, can weigh a substantial amount. Make sure that the weight of the cable is supported on its own and not

hanging from the pass through module.

Page 14

3 Troubleshooting

As soon as a pass through module is plugged in make sure that the status LED shows green.

The power LED for the pass through module shuts off:

1. Check that the there is adequate ventilation.

2. Make sure that there is nothing blocking the front or rear of the chassis and that the fan modules and ventilation holes are not blocked (especially dust over the holes).

3. If you find dust blocking the holes it is recommended to clean the fan unit and remove the dust from the front and rear panels of the pass through module using a vacuum cleaner.

4. Remove and Reinstall the PTM.
