Figure 12 Installing the power module

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.
