Failure to do so will produce poor network performance.Note: The SecureStack B2 Configuration Guide and the Cabling Guide referred to in the following sections can be found on the Enterasys Networks World Wide Web site:http://www.enterasys.com/support/manualsFor details about obtaining the manuals, refer to Related Documents on page xvi.Note: If a port is to operate at 100 or 1000 Mbps, Category 5 cabling must be used. Category 3 cabling does not meet the 100 or 1000 Mbps specifications. For 10 Mbps operation only, Category 3, Category 4, or Category 5 cabling can be used. Refer to 100BASE-TX Network (page 2-2) and 1000BASE-T Network (page 2-2) for information about 100BASE-TX and 1000BASE-T networks and cabling.100BASE-TX Network2-2 Network Requirements100BASE-TX NetworkWhenconnectinga100BASETXsegmenttooneofthefixedports(1 through24onB2G12424,1through48onB2G12448,or1through48onB2H12448),useCategory5UTPcabling.TheswitchattheotherendofthetwistedpairsegmentmustmeetIEEE802.32002100BASETXFastEthernetnetworkrequirementsfortheswitchestooperateat100 Mbps.1000BASE-FX NetworkTheMiniGBICportsockets(21 through24onB2G12424;45through48onB2G12448;or49through52onB2H12448)enableyoutovarythetypeof1Gbpsportconnection.AttheprintingofthisdocumenttherewerefivesupportedMiniGBICsavailable,asfollows: MGBICLC01fora1000BASESXcompliantLCfiberopticmultimodeconnection MGBICLC03fora1000BASESXcompliantLCfiberopticmultimodeconnection MGBICLC09fora1000BASELXcompliantLCfiberopticsinglemodeconnection MGBICMT01fora1000BASESXcompliantMTRJfiberopticsinglemodeconnection MGBIC08fora1000BASEELXcompliantLCfiberopticsinglemodeconnectionThedeviceattheotherendofthefiberconnectionmustmeetthesameGigabitEthernetrequirementsfortheconnecteddevicestooperateat1Gigabitspeed.1000BASE-T NetworkTheRJ45fixedfrontpanelconnectorssupportRJ45copper1000BASETcompliantconnections.Whenconnectinga1000BASETsegmenttooneoftheRJ45fixedportsuseCategory5UTPcabling.ThedeviceattheotherendofthetwistedpairsegmentmustmeetIEEE802.320021000BASETGigabitEthernetnetworkrequirementsforthedevicestooperateat1000 Mbps.Note: When using the fixed ports on the switch for 100 Mbps operation use Category 5 UTP cabling with an impedance between 85 and 111 ohms for 100 Mbps operation.The fixed switch ports are capable of operating at 10, 100, or 1000 Mbps. This is accomplished by the switch when Auto-Negotiation is enabled. This enables the switch to automatically sense the transmission speed of the other device and adjust for the speed accordingly.SecureStack B2 Installation Guide 3-13Hardware InstallationThischapterprovidesinstructionstoinstalltheB2G12424,B2G12448,andB2H12448.Unlessotherwisenoted,theinstructionsapplytoallswitches.Followtheorderofthesectionslistedbelowtocorrectlyinstalltheswitch.Electrical Hazard: Only qualified personnel should perform installation procedures.Riesgo Electrico: Solamente personal calificado debe realizar procedimientos de instalacion.Elektrischer Gefahrenhinweis: Installationen sollten nur durch ausgebildetes und qualifiziertes Personal vorgenommen werden.Important NoticeRead the Release Notes shipped with the switch to check for any exceptions to the supported features and operation documented in this guide.For information about...

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.Advertencia: Los Mini-GBICS de fibra optica usan lasers de clase 1. No se debe usar instrumentos opticos para ver la potencia laser. El uso de los instrumentos opticos para ver la potencia laser incrementa el riesgo a los ojos. Cuando vean el puerto de la potencia optica, la corriente debe ser removida del adaptador de la red.Warnhinweis: Mini-GBICs mit Fiber-Optik Technologie benutzen Laser der Klasse 1. Benutzen sie keinesfalls optische Hilfsmittel, um die Funktion des Lasers zu berprfen. Solche Hilfsmittel erhhen die Gefahr von Sehschden. Wenn sie den optischen Port berprfen mchten stellen Sie sicher, dass die Komponente von der Spannungsversorgung getrennt ist.Caution: Carefully follow the instructions in this manual to avoid damaging the Mini-GBICand the device.The Mini-GBICand the device are sensitive to static discharges. Use an antistatic wrist strap and observe all static precautions during this procedure. Failure to do so could result in damage to the Mini-GBIC, Ethernet interface module, and DFE-Gold module. Always leave the Mini-GBIC in the antistatic bag or an equivalent antistatic container when not installed.Precaucin: Siga las instrucciones del manual para no daar el Mini-GBIC ni del aparato, puesto que son muy sensible a las descargas de electricidad esttica. Utilice la pulsera antiesttica y tome todas las precauciones necesarias durante este procedimiento. Si no lo hace, podra daar el Mini-GBIC o del aparato.

This command WILL NOT clear stack parameters and avoids the process of re-numbering the stack. Use clear config all when it is necessary to clear all config parameters, including stack switch IDs and switch priority values.Note: The power supply in the switch has automatic voltage sensing that allows connection to power sources ranging from 100 to 240 VAC.Note: If you plan to connect all the switches quickly to allow automatic Manager selection, wait until all switches are fully operational before proceeding to the next step.If you plan to power up each switch and allow it to become fully operational before applying power to the next switch, proceed to the next step.Connecting AC and RPS-SYS Power3-16 Hardware InstallationFigure 3-8 Switch Rear View3.
