PowerConnect M8024 10 Gb Ethernet Switch I/O Module

The PowerConnect M8024 switch module incorporates two option bays
that support the following modules:

A 10 Gb Ethernet module with four optical SFP+ connectors

A 10 Gb Ethernet module with three copper CX4 uplinks

The modules can be used in any combination and are sold separately.

You can initially configure the switch using either of two methods:

Connect an external management system to the switch using an optional
USB type-A form factor serial cable, and configure the switch using a
terminal application.

Use the iKVM CMC console ("17th blade") and the connect switch-n
CMC CLI command. For more information, see the CMC user’s guide.

Once an IP address is assigned to the management VLAN or interface and
the switch is connected to a management network, both Telnet and http
are available through the network.
