Software Controlled Switch Settings
Additional settings are available via software control when a 4GT is installed in an
iConverter
chassis with a Management Module.
The following software only settings can be controlled via Serial Console/Telnet Console,
NetOutlook Management Software or other third-party SNMP-based clients:
– Port VLAN for UTP Ports and Backplane Ports (“A” and “B”)
– Port Access Control for UTP Ports
– MIB Statistics Reporting
– Tag VLAN for UTP Ports and Backplane Ports (“A” and “B”)
– Bandwidth Allocation for UTP Ports
Software controlled settings can be selected to override DIP-Switch settings.
iConverter 4GT
Plug-in Module User Manual
Product Overview
The iConverter 4GT (PN: 8482-4) is a four-port 10/100/1000Mbps Ethernet switch that supports Half/Full-Duplex and auto-negotiation on each RJ-45 port.
Installation Procedure
1) Congure DIP-switches
2) Install Module in Chassis and Connect Cables
iConverter 4GT can be used in an unmanaged or managed conguration. When
The unmanaged, it can be installed in a chassis without a Management Module. Management of the module is accomplished by installing a Management Module (such as an iConverter
NMM2 or GX/TM2) that provides monitoring, conguration and trap notication in the same
chassis.
1) CONFIGURE DIP-SWITCHES
DIP-SWITCH BANK 1
The location of the DIP-switches is shown in
Figure 1.
Each port can be congured for Auto Negotiation (AN) or Manual conguration (Man). When configur ed for AN, the port aut omatically
determines the speed, dupl ex and pause
capability of the connected device. If the port is congured for Manual, the speed and duplex
is determined by the 100/10 and FDX/HDX
DIP-switches (see Figure 4 for conguration
details).
1000Mbps Manual operation is not supported. For 1000Mbps operation, congure the ports for AN operation.
The functions of DIP-switch Bank 1 are outlined in Figure 2. DIP-switch Bank 1 switches 3 - 8 control the operation of Port 1 and Port 2. DIP-switches 1 and 2 are global settings.
SW1 and SW2: BACKPLANE ENABLE
When these DIP-switches are in the “DS” position (factory default), the Backplane Port of the 4GT is isolated from the Ethernet Backplane on the chassis. When these DIP-switches are in the “EN” position, the Backplane Port is enabled. This allows Ethernet Backplane connectivity to an adjacent module via the chassis A/B Backplane Link depending on the switch setting. Refer to the chassis user manual for detailed information on the Ethernet Backplane.

Figure 4: Port Speed and Duplex Selection
SW7 - Pause “Off/On” The Pause DIP-switch sets the ow control functionality for all four ports on the module, including pause mode advertisement, pause functionality, and half duplex back pressure. When the DIP-switch is in the Pause Enable “On” position, ow control functionality is enabled. When this DIP-switch is in the Pause Disable “Off” position (factory default), ow
control functionality is disabled.
If Pause is Enabled on the module and the port is in half duplex, then half duplex ow control is enabled. When a port is in half duplex ow control it generates a back pressure signal
when internal buffer resources are low.
If Pause is Enabled on the module and the port is in full duplex, then full duplex ow control is enabled. When a port is in full duplex ow control and internal buffering resources are low, a pause frame is generated to slow down the trafc ow to the port.
SW8 - MAC Learning When this DIP-switch is in the Enable “On” position (factory default), all ports on the module will learn the source MAC address of each received packet and store the address so packets
destined for the stored addresses can be forwarded to the appropriate interface on the module.
When the DIP-switch is in the Disable “Off” position, learning is turned off and all received packets are forwarded to all ports.
2) INSTALL MODULE IN CHASSIS AND CONNECT CABLES
Carefully slide the module into an open slot in the chassis. Align the module with the installation
guides and ensure that the module is rmly seated against the backplane. Secure the module by fastening the front panel thumbscrew (push in and turn clockwise to tighten) to the chassis front. Verify the “Pwr” LED is ON (indicating the chassis is powered).
Caution: Use proper ESD protection to reduce the risk of damage to the equipment.
Connect the UTP ports via a Category 5 cable to a 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX or 1000BASE-T
Ethernet device.
3) VERIFY OPERATION
Verify the correct LED is illuminated based on the conguration of the port.
Figure 5: Front Panel Layout
Each port can operate at 10/100/1000. Figure 6 on the next page indicates the operation of the port based on the illuminated LEDs. If the 100 LED is illuminated, the port is operating
