Overview
The TippingPoint Threat Protection System (TPS) is a high-performance, enterprise-class solution that protects your network
by scanning, detecting, and responding to network traffic according to the filters, action sets, and global settings maintained
on each device by a client.
The TPS offers improved technology that is optimized for higher throughput, high resiliency, high availability, and network
segment protection from both external and internal attacks.
You can install as many TPS security devices as you need to strategically protect your network enterprise zones. A local client
on the device monitors and manages activity. Alternatively, you can manage devices by using the Security Management System
(SMS) console.
Learn more about each TPS product in the following sections:
•TPS TX Series devices
•TPS 2200T device
•TPS 440T device
For information about the Virtual Threat Protection System (vTPS) virtual appliance, refer to that product documentation.

Chassis LEDs
When you turn on the device, the system completes a series of component checks and then displays LED indicators to show
the status of each component:
•Stack Master status
•Solid green: The device is the stack master.
•Off: The device is not the stack master.
•Stack status
•Amber: The device is not ready to inspect network traffic.
•Flashing green: The device is RTI but is not currently inspecting network traffic.
•Solid green: The device is RTI and is inspecting network traffic.
•Off: Stacking is not enabled on the device.
•Bypass status

Power requirements
The 8200TX and 8400TX devices require Alternating Current (AC) or Direct Current (DC) that meets the following
requirements:
•AC: Voltage 100V to 240V; 12 to 6A; 47 to 63 Hz
•DC: Voltage -40V to -60V; 24 to 16A
The TX Series devices ship with two AC power supplies. Consult your TippingPoint account contact for more information if
you require a DC power supply.
Cabling requirements
The TPS 8200TX and 8400TX devices ship with the following cables:
•Two AC power cables, one for each hot-swappable power supply
•Null modem cable (USB to RJ-45) for the serial console management port
I/O module installation
Use the following topics to set up the I/O modules supported in TippingPoint security devices:
•Before you begin
•ESD requirements
•I/O module options

TPS Hardware Specification and Installation
•Module LEDs
•I/O module replacement
•Supported transceivers and cables for TippingPoint I/O modules
Before you begin
•Review the release notes for your product for any late-breaking changes to the installation instructions.
•Read and follow all safety information listed in the TippingPoint Hardware Safety and Compliance Guide that shipped with
your product.
•Complete the installation of your TippingPoint security device.
ESD requirements
Damage from Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can occur when you handle electronic components improperly. Improper
handling can also result in complete or intermittent system failures. Use proper ESD protection whenever you handle
equipment. Following these general grounding guidelines:
•Always use an ESD wrist strap when you add or remove components from the chassis.
•Avoid touching the circuit boards or connectors on all cards and modules.
•Avoid contact between the printed circuit boards and clothing. The wrist strap only protects components from ESD
voltages on the body. ESD voltages on clothing can still cause damage.
Place a removed component board-side-up on an antistatic surface or in a static-shielding container that is also grounded to
the same point as the device. If you plan to return the component to the factory, immediately place it in a static-shielding
container.
I/O module options
TippingPoint devices with module slots support both standard I/O modules and bypass I/O modules. Refer to the following
table for fiber and copper components.
Only optical transceiver modules (including SFP, SFP+, and QSFP+) available from TippingPoint have been validated to
achieve optimal performance with TippingPoint products. Other vendor devices are not supported. Using other vendor
devices could be detrimental to proper operation of the TippingPoint system.
Bypass I/O modules are zero-power high-availability (ZPHA) modules that permit network traffic and services while
bypassing the device entirely when the device loses power.
