5.

Fasten the captive screws on the power module with a Phillips screwdriver.

NOTE:

For more information about power module LEDs, see "

Appendix B LEDs

An AC power module and a DC power module cannot be installed on the same L1000-A.

Connecting interface cables

Connecting a copper Ethernet port

You can use category-5 or above twisted pair cables to connect the 10Base-T/100Base-TX/1000Base-T

ports on the L1000-A to the network. These ports use RJ-45 connectors and support MDI/MDI-X

auto-sensing. For more information about twisted pair cables, see "

Ethernet twisted pair cable

."

To connect a 10Base-T/100Base-TX/1000Base-T port to a peer device:

1.

Plug one end of a twisted pair cable into the port.

2.

Plug the other end of the twisted pair cable into the RJ-45 Ethernet port of the peer device.

3.

Examine the port LED status.
For more information about the LED status, see "

Appendix B LEDs

."

After you connect the L1000-A to the network, execute the ping or tracert command to test network
connectivity. For more information about the commands, see the command reference of the L1000-A.

Connecting a fiber port

WARNING!

Do not stare into any fiber port when you connect an optical fiber. The laser light emitted from the optical
fiber may hurt your eyes.

CAUTION:

Be sure to install the dust cover if the fiber port is not connected to a fiber connector.

Never bend or curve a fiber when connecting it. The bend radius must be at least 10 cm (3.94 in).

Keep the end of the fiber clean.

Make sure the Tx and Rx ends of the SFP transceiver module are correctly connected.
