Px Series Application Switch Installation and Configuration Guide

Table 2-1 describes the LED behavior on the SummitPx1.

The front panel of the SummitPx1 has four ports:

Gigabit Interface Connector (GBIC)

The Network Interface port is a Gigabit Interface Connector (GBIC) used to connect
the application switch to your local network.

100BASE-Tx Ethernet Management (RJ-45)

The Ethernet Management port (RJ-45 connector) is a 10/100 Mbps Ethernet
connection used for out-of-band management.

Console (serial RJ-45)

The console port (serial RJ-45 connector) is used to connect a terminal for local
out-of-band management. The console operates at 9600 baud, 8 data bits, no parity,
one stop bit (8-N-1) with no hardware flow control.

Use the included DB-9 adapter to connect the console to a PC serial port, using a
straight (1-8, 1-8) cable, such as a standard category 3 or category 5 Ethernet cable.
The pinouts for the DB-9 adapter are shown in Table 2-2 on page 2-3.

If you are wiring the console port to a console server, you must use a null modem
cable (1-8, 8-1).

AUX (serial RJ-45)

The AUX port (RJ-45 connector) has the same pin-outs as the console port. The AUX
port is used for remote out-of-band management.
