Observe the LANVIEW LEDs. After a successful boot, the CPU LED
turns on (green). If the PWR LED is not green after one minute and

connections and the power source. If there are no problems with the
power cord connections or power source and the PWR LED is still not
green, contact the Cabletron Systems Global Call Center. Refer to

CONNECTING TO THE NETWORK

This section provides the procedures for connecting twisted pair and fiber
optic segments from the network or other devices to the 2H22-08R.

Ports 1 through 6 on the 2H22-08R have RJ45 connectors for twisted pair
connections. Ports 7 and 8 support FE-100TX, FE-100FX, or FE-100F3
Fast Ethernet Interface Modules. The FE-100TX has an RJ45 connector
for a twisted pair cable connection. The FE-100FX and FE-100F3 have
SC connectors for fiber optic cable connections.

NOTE

It takes approximately one minute for the 2H22-08R to boot up.

NOTE

If the 2H22-08R is being installed in a network using
SmartTrunking, there are rules concerning the network cable
and port configurations that must be followed for
SmartTrunking to operate properly. Before connecting the
cables, refer to the Cabletron Systems

SmartTrunk User’s

Guide for configuration information.

NOTE

Refer to the Cabletron Systems

Cabling Guide to make a

twisted pair connection to an FE-100TX, or a fiber optic cable
connection to an FE-100FX or FE-100F3 for port slot 7 or 8.
