Attaching the management module Ethernet port to a
network
The Management Module (MM) 10BaseT/100BaseTX/1000BaseTX Ethernet (management) port
(RJ-45 UTP connector) allows you to connect the management port to a network.
To attach the MM Ethernet port to a network, you need a Category 5 UTP straight-through cable
(not supplied by Brocade). Connect one end of the straight-through cable to the management port
and the other end to the network.
Powering On the power source
To power on the power source after completing installation, follow these steps.
1. Verify that all modules and power supplies are fully and properly installed and that no module
slots are uncovered.
CAUTION
If you do not install a module in a slot, you must keep the slot blank in place. If you run the
chassis with an uncovered slot, the system may overheat.
2. If you are supplying a DC power source to a ServerIron ADX chassis, attach the power cables to
the DC power supply as described in “Connecting DC power to a chassis” on page 38.
Connect the other end of the cables to the DC power source. Repeat this step for each installed
DC power supply. Then switch on the power source.
3. If your power source is AC, attach one end of a Brocade-supplied AC power cord to the AC
power supply as described in “Connecting AC power” on page 35.
Insert the other end into a 115V/120V or 220V/230V wall outlet. Repeat this step for each
installed AC power supply.
DANGER
If the installation requires a different power cord than the one supplied with the device, make
sure you use a power cord displaying the mark of the safety agency that defines the regulations
for power cords in your country. The mark is your assurance that the power cord can be used
safely with the device.
CAUTION
AC outlet should be appropriate for the AC rating of the power cord plug.
