Ethernet (PoE and non-PoE), 8 Ports 1G, 2 Ports 10G

Feature Highlights and Installation Instructions

Feature Highlights

There are two versions of the FlexMedia card, differing only in Power over Ethernet (PoE) support:

Catalog # LC-CB-10G-1G-36V (card type E36VB): PoE support to 15.4 Watts/port on 10/100/1000 ports

Catalog # LC-CB-10G-1G-36T (card type E36TB): non-PoE

36 ports with RJ-45 connectors support auto-negotiation or 10/100/1000 Base-T speed, full and half duplex.

8 ports use approved 1G Small-form Factor Pluggable (SFP) optical transceivers.

2 ports use approved 10G Small-form Factor Pluggable (SFP+) optical transceivers.

SFP+ ports support SR and LR media modules (only Force10-specific modules are recognized by the card.).

Note: FTOS 7.7.1.0 does not allow non-qualified SFP+ modules, which can cause board damage.

The CB series line cards support the following CAM configurations:

12K Layer 3 IP forward information base (FIB)

16K Layer 2 FIB

768 Layer 2 access control list (ACL) entries

768 Layer 3 access control list (ACL) entries

Support for online insertion and removal (OIR) of line card.

Support for ingress Layer 2 and Layer 3 ACL processing across all ports.

Installation Notes:
• The chassis into which this line card is installed must be running FTOS version 7.7.1.0 or later

and boot code 2.6.0.2 or later.

• Only the non-PoE version of the card works in a DC-powered chassis.
