Rear Panel Description
Component | Cable Requirement | Description |
---|---|---|
Alarm Port | Customer supplied cable | Alarm contact via a single shielded male HD15 connector. A single alarm port is present in SBC 5400 platform. |
Management Ports | CAT5e cable | Four copper Ethernet Ports which process Management traffic and perform protocol termination. |
Locator | Module identifier indicator | |
Media Ports | Single mode or Multi mode fiber/copper CAT5e cable | Four copper SFP or fiber SFP ports for media and signaling traffic. |
High Availability Ports | Single mode or Multi mode fiber/copper CAT5e cable (NON-CROSSOVER TYPE ONLY) | Two copper SFP or fiber SFP ports for redundancy synchronization traffic. The platform supports box level redundancy via communication paths provided by the external HA Ethernet ports. |
Serial Port | Male DB9 connector | An RS-232 port used by BMC. |
Field Service Port | Copper CAT5e cable | A single Field Service Port. |
Power Input | Power Supply. The following are the descriptions of the power supply LED functions:

Ribbon-provided SFP modules must be used to guarantee proper operation of the external ports. Failure to follow this recommendation may cause permanent damage to the system.
CAT6 cabling may be required in environments where there is unusually high Electro-Magnetic interference (EMI) from power lines, manufacturing equipment, or certain types of lighting.
The Ethernet Port LEDs Description table shows the two green LEDs (solid green and flashing green) for each network port.
