SAFETY INFORMATION
CLASS 1 LASER TRANSCEIVERS
SINGLE MODE NETWORK EXPANSION MODULES USE CLASS 1 LASER TRANSCEIVERS.
READ THE FOLLOWING SAFETY INFORMATION
BEFORE INSTALLING OR OPERATING THESE MODULES.
The Class 1 laser transceivers use an optical feedback loop to maintain Class 1 operation limits. This control loop eliminates the need for maintenance checks or adjustments. The output is factory set, and does not allow any user adjustment. Class 1 Laser transceivers comply with the following safety standards:
•21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11 U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (FDA).
•IEC Publication 825 (International Electrotechnical Commission).
•CENELEC EN 60825 (European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization).
When operating within their performance limitations, laser transceiver output meets the Class 1 accessible emission limit of all three standards. Class 1 levels of laser radiation are not considered hazardous.
When the connector is in place, all laser radiation remains within the fiber. The maximum amount of radiant power exiting the fiber (under normal conditions) is 12.6 dBm or 55 x 10 6 watts.
Removing the optical connector from the transceiver allows laser radiation to emit directly from the optical port. The maximum radiance from the optical port (under worst case conditions) is 0.8 W cm 2 or 8 x 103 W m2 sr 1.
Do not use optical instruments to view the laser output. The use of optical instruments to view laser output increases eye hazard. When viewing the output optical port, power must be removed from the network adapter.

SecureStack A2 PoE Installation Guide 1-1
Overview
Overview
The A2H124 24P and A2H124 48P are stackable Fast Ethernet switches, which can be adapted and scaled to help meet your network needs. These switches provide a management platform and uplink to a network backbone for a stacked group of up to eight A2 switches. The two built in Small Form Pluggable (SFP) interface slots provide you with the option of installing Mini GBICs for 1000BASE SX/LX/ELX fiber optic connections and 1000BASE T copper connections.
The switches also support the use of a redundant DC power supply to help prevent downtime due to an internal power supply failure in the switch or AC power source.
You can install the SecureStack A2 on a flat surface or into a standard 19 inch rack with user supplied mounting hardware, and configure the SecureStack A2 functions using the WebView™ application, CLI switching commands, and/or SNMP.
A2H124-24P and A2H124-48P
The A2H124 24P (Figure 1 1) and A2H124 48P (Figure 1 2) have several types of front panel port connections, which include:
•RJ45 ports (10/100 Mbps, 100BASE T copper ports), 24 on the A2H124 24P and 48 on the A2H124 48P.
•SFP slots labeled port 27 and 28 on the A2H124 24P and 51 and 52 on the A2H124 48P that provide you with the option of installing Small Form Pluggable (SFP) Mini GBICs for 1000BASE SX/LX/ELX fiber optic connections and 1000BASE T copper connections.
•1000BASE T RJ45 stack connectors which can be used in a stack configuration as well as standard switch ports when configured as a stand alone switch.
•Rear panel Redundant Power Supply connector used to connect to a SecureStack C2RPS POE power supply system using the appropriate cable (C2RPS POE cable).
Caution: The A2H124-24P and A2H124-48P are PoE-compliant devices. Do not connect a SecureStack C2 Redundant Power System (C2RPS-SYS) to the power connector. Otherwise, damage to the device may result.
Precaución: Los dispositivos A2H124-24P y A2H124-48P cumplen con el estándar PoE (power over ethernet). No conecte una fuente de poder redundante (RPS) SecureStack C2 (C2RPS-SYS) al cable de corriente. De lo contrario, el dispositivo puede dañarse.
The 10/100 Mbps fixed front panel ports can operate in either half duplex or full duplex mode, as determined by Auto Negotiation.
1-2 Introduction
Overview
Note: The 1000BASE-T built-in RJ45 stacking ports 25 and 26 on the A2H124-24P and ports 49 and 50 on the A2H124-48P can be configured as standard 10/100/1000BASE-T switch ports, using the command “set switch stackport <ethernet / stack >” when the unit is used in standalone mode.

SecureStack A2 PoE Installation Guide 1-3
PoE (Power over Ethernet) Support
Stack Connections
The switches have front panel RJ45 connectors for connections in a stack configuration. The stacking cables used for the connections are standard Category 5 or better UTP cable.
Redundant Power Supply Capability
The SecureStack A2 has power supply redundancy capability when connected to an optional external redundant power supply (RPS). If the internal power supply fails, the RPS assumes the entire load of the SecureStack A2 without interrupting network traffic. The internal power supply and RPS each have their own AC power connection, which enables the connection of each power supply to a different AC power circuit for additional AC power source redundancy.
PoE (Power over Ethernet) Support
The switch is 802.3af compliant, which means it can provide power over Ethernet cable connections from its RJ45 front panel connectors to PDs (powered devices) in the network.
Power over Ethernet (PoE) refers to the ability to provide 48 Vdc power to a powered device using the same Ethernet cabling that provides data. Modern Ethernet implementations employ differential signals over twisted pair cables. This requires a minimum of two twisted pairs for a single physical link. Both ends of the cable are isolated with transformers blocking any DC or common mode voltage on the signal pair. PoE exploits this fact by using two twisted pairs as the two conductors to supply a direct current. One pair carries the power supply current and the other pair provides a path for the return current. While several proprietary legacy implementations of PoE have been deployed by LAN equipment vendors, in 2003 the IEEE published the IEEE 802.3af 2003 specification, which is part of the 802.3 suite of standards.
The switch is fully compliant with the IEEE 802.3af standard. It supports the standard resistor based detection method, as well as AC disconnect capability. The switch can provide up to 360 watts of PoE power and is capable of supplying a maximum of 15.4 watts to any 10/100 port. In addition it is capable of providing 7.5 watts of power to all ports simultaneously.
Each PD has a PDC (Powered Device Classification) that is transmitted to the switch for power management purposes. Table 1 1 lists the classifications and the associated power ranges.

Connectivity
The SecureStack A2 connects to Ethernet networks or workstations via the fixed front panel RJ45 connectors and two uplink ports that support optional Mini GBICs.
At the time of this printing, the Mini GBICs that are available from Enterasys and supported by A2 switches are described in Table 1 2. These Mini GBICs meet or exceed the IEEE 802.3z 1998 standard.
Table 1-2 Description of Mini-GBICs
Mini-GBIC Specification
MGBIC-LC01 Provides one 1000BASE-SX compliant LC fiber-optic multimode port and a standard LC connector. For optical and operating range specifications, refer to “MGBIC-LC01/MGBIC-MT01 Specifications (1000BASE-SX)” on page A-4.
MGBIC-LC03 Provides one 1000BASE-SX Long Haul LC fiber-optic multimode port with a standard LC duplex connector. For optical and operating range specifications, refer to “MGBIC-LC03 Specifications (1000BASE-SX)” on page A-5.
MGBIC-LC09 Provides one 1000BASE-LX compliant LC fiber-optic single-mode port with a standard LC connector. For optical and operating range specifications, refer to “MGBIC-LC09 Specifications (1000BASE-LX)” on page A-6.
MGBIC-MT01 Provides one 1000BASE-SX compliant LC fiber-optic multimode port with a standard MT-RJ connector. For optical and operating range specifications, refer to “MGBIC-LC01/MGBIC-MT01 Specifications (1000BASE-SX)” on page A-4.
MGBIC-08 Provides one 1000BASE-ELX compliant LC fiber-optic single-mode port with a standard LC connector. For optical and operating range specifications, refer to “MGBIC-08 Specifications (1000BASE-ELX)” on page A-6.
MGBIC-02 Provides one RJ45 copper connection that is compliant with the 1000BASE-T standard RJ45 connector. For operating range specifications, refer to “MGBIC-02 Specifications (1000BASE-T)” on page A-7.
