NOTE:
If the boot file of the router is stored in the CF card, before booting the router, make sure that the CF card
has been correctly installed. Otherwise, the router cannot be booted.
Connecting Ethernet cables
Connecting a copper Ethernet cable
The 10/100/1000Base-T copper ports of the H3C SR6602 router support MDI/MDI-X auto-sensing.
They are connected to the network through category-5 or above twisted pairs that are equipped with
RJ-45 connectors.
Connection procedure
Follow these steps to connect the router to a network through a 10/100/1000Base-T port:
Step1 Plug one end of an Ethernet twisted pair cable into the copper Ethernet port (RJ-45 port) to be connected
on the router.
Step2 Plug the other end of the cable into the RJ-45 port of the peer device.
Step3 Check the status LED of the RJ-45 connector. For more information about the LED status, see “ Appendix
B LEDs .”
NOTE:
•
After connecting Ethernet cables, you can use the ping or tracert command to check the connectivity
between router and network. For more information, see the
H3C SR6600 Routers Command References.
• For more information about Ethernet twisted pair cables, see the chapter “ Appendix C Cables .”
Connecting a fiber Ethernet cable
Before connecting Ethernet cables, you must install a transceiver module to the router, and then insert the
fiber connector to the transceiver module. The SR6600 Router Series supports LC connectors only.
WARNING!
•
To avoid injury to your eyes, do not stare at the optical interfaces and optical fiber connectors when
connecting optical fibers.
• Never bend or curve a fiber when connecting it. The bend radius must be not less than 10 cm (3.94 in).
• Ensure the cleanness of the fiber ends.
• Make sure that the fiber connector matches the transceiver module.
Follow these steps to connect your router to the network through optical fibers:
Step1 Remove the dust plug of the transceiver module.
