10-GbE ports on the FSX 800 and FSX 1600 2-port 10-GbE management modules
FSX 800 and FSX 1600 2-port 10-GbE management modules contain two 10-GbE fiber ports
through which you can connect your device to other network devices at a speed of 10 Gigabits per
second.
The 10-GbE ports have optical interfaces with LC connectors for 10-Gigabit Small Form Factor
Pluggable (XFP) MSA-compliant transceivers. The transceivers support the fiber optic cabling for
LAN PHY listed in Table 34 on page 151.
LEDs on the FSX 800 and FSX 1600 management modules
The management modules provide status information through the LEDs listed in Table 5.
Console port
The Console port on the management module is a standard DB-9 serial connector through which
you can attach a PC or terminal to configure the system using the command line interface (CLI).
The Console port interfaces with the control plane only and does not interface with the data plane.
Reset button
The reset button on the management module allows you to restart the system. The reset button is
recessed to prevent it from being pushed accidentally.
The reset button is located next to the console port on the management module.
