■ Four auto-sensing 10/100/1000Base-T ports. All these ports have the
“Auto-MDIX” feature, which means that you can use either straightthrough or crossover twisted-pair cables to connect any network devices
to the E-MSM720.
■ Two dual-personality ports for either 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45 (Auto-
MDX) uplinks, or optional mini-GBIC (SFP) slots for fiber uplinks.

Flashing
A fault has occurred with a component on the E-MSM720. The Status LED
for the component with the fault will flash simultaneously.
On On briefly after the E-MSM720 is powered on or reset, at the beginning
of E-MSM720 self test. If this LED is on for a prolonged time, the EMSM720 has encountered a fatal hardware failure, or has failed its self
test.

The Locator LED is used to locate a specific E-MSM720 in an area full of
other controllers and E-MSM720s. The LED can be set to be on solid or
flash for a specified number of minutes (1-1440). The default is 30 minutes.
Use the command “chassislocate”.
Off The normal operational state; the E-MSM720 is not undergoing self test.
On green The E-MSM720 self test and initialization are in progress after the E-
MSM720 has been power cycled or reset. The E-MSM720 is not
operational until this LED goes off. The Test LED also comes on briefly
when you “hot swap” a mini-GBIC into the E-MSM720; the mini-GBIC is
tested when it is hot swapped.

Resetting to Factory Defaults
To reset the E-MSM720 to its factory default configuration:
1. Using a paperclip, press and release the Reset button.
2. Immediately press and hold the Clear button until the LEDs above the
Clear button flash three times, then release the Clear button.
Using the Console Port
The Console port is used to connect a console to an E-MSM720 by using the
supplied RJ-45 to DB9 cable. This is used for the CLI (Command Line
Interface). See the E-MSM7xx Controllers CLI Reference Guide.

Installing the E-MSM720
Installation Precautions
WARNING ■ The rack or cabinet should be adequately secured to prevent it
from becoming unstable and/or falling over.
Devices installed in a rack or cabinet should be mounted as low as
possible, with the heaviest devices at the bottom and progressively
lighter devices installed above.
■ Wall-mount the E-MSM720 with network ports facing up (away
from the floor). Do not wall-mount the E-MSM720 with the
network ports facing down (toward the floor) or ventilation ducts
facing up or down.
2
Cautions ■ Use only the AC/DC power adapter supplied with the E-MSM720 for
connection to an AC power source.
■ Ensure the power source circuits are properly grounded, then use the
power cord supplied with the E-MSM720 to connect it to the power
source.
■ If your installation requires a different power cord than the one supplied
with the E-MSM720, ensure the cord is adequately sized for the EMSM720’s current requirements. In addition, be sure to use a power cord
displaying the mark of the safety agency that defines the regulations for
power cords in your country. The mark is your assurance that the power
cord can be used safely with the E-MSM720. If the supplied power cord
does not fit, contact HP Networking support.
■ When installing the E-MSM720, the AC outlet should be near the E-
MSM720 and should be easily accessible in case the E-MSM720 must be
powered off.
■ Do not install the E-MSM720 in an environment where the operating
ambient temperature might exceed 45°C (113°F). This includes a fullyenclosed rack. Ensure the air flow around the sides and back of the EMSM720 is not restricted.
■ Ensure all port covers are installed when the port is not in use.

Installing the E-MSM720
Installation Procedures
Installation Procedures
These steps summarize your E-MSM720 installation. The rest of this chapter
provides details on these steps.
1. Prepare the installation site (page 2-3). Make sure the physical
environment into which you will be installing the E-MSM720 is properly
prepared, including having the correct network cabling ready to connect
to the E-MSM720 and having an appropriate location for the E-MSM720.
2. Verify the E-MSM720 passes self test (page 2-3). Plug the E-MSM720
into a power source and observe that the LEDs on the E-MSM720’s front
panel indicate correct E-MSM720 operation.
3. Mount the E-MSM720 (page 2-5). The E-MSM720 can be mounted in a
19-inch telco rack, in an equipment cabinet, on a wall, or on a horizontal
surface.
4. Connect power to the E-MSM720 (page 2-9). Once the E-MSM720 is
mounted, plug it into the main power source.
5. Connect the network devices (page 2-10). Using the appropriate
network cables, connect the network devices to the E-MSM720 ports.
6. (Optional) Install mini-GBICs (page 2-11). The E-MSM720 has two or
four slots for installing mini-GBICs. Depending on where you install the
E-MSM720, it may be easier to install the mini-GBICs first. Mini-GBICs can
be hot swapped—they can be installed or removed while the E-MSM720
is powered on.
2-2
Installing the E-MSM720
Connect AC/DC power adapter to the
E-MSM720 and an AC power outlet
Installation Procedures
1. Prepare the Installation Site
■ Cabling Infrastructure - Ensure the cabling infrastructure meets the
necessary network specifications.
■ Installation Location - Before installing the E-MSM720, plan its location
and orientation relative to other devices and equipment:
• In the front of the E-MSM720, leave at least 7.6 cm (3 inches) of space
for the twisted-pair and fiber-optic cabling.
• In the back of the E-MSM720, leave at least 3.8 cm (1 1/2 inches) of
space for the power cord.
• On the sides of the E-MSM720, leave at least 7.6 cm (3 inches) for
cooling.
2. Verify the E-MSM720 Passes Self Test
Before mounting the E-MSM720 in its network location, you should first verify
it is working properly by plugging it into a power source and verifying it passes
its self test.
Connect the AC/DC adapter’s power cord to the power connector on the back
of the E-MSM720, and then plug the AC/DC power adapter into a nearby
properly grounded electrical outlet.
