1 Network and management interfaces FIGURE 2 ICX 6430-C12 rear panel Network and management interfaces The ICX 6430-C12 device includes the following management interfaces, and a reset button on the front panel of the device: • Console management interface (RJ45 serial port) • Out-of-band management interface (RJ45 port) • Reset button These RJ45 management ports are located together on the left side of the front panel. Refer to Figure 3.
Network and management interfaces 1 Reset button The reset button allows you to restart the system without switching the power supplies off and on or using the CLI or Web Management Interface. When reset button is pressed, the system resets and the software is reloaded. The button is directly below the power LED on the very left of the device’s front panel.
1 Port, system, and power status LEDs 1GbE RJ45 ports An ICX t6430-C device provides 12 RJ45 ports that reside on Slot 1 of the device. The 12 RJ45 ports operate at 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps half or full duplex, or at 1000 Mbps full duplex. Because all ports support automatic MDI or MDI-X operation, you can use straight-through cables for all network connections to PCs or servers, or to other devices or hubs.

Summary of installation tasks Follow the steps listed in Table 5 to install your device. Details for each of these steps are provided on the pages indicated. TABLE 5 Installation tasks Task number Task Where to find more information 1 Ensure that the physical environment that will host the device has the proper cabling, ventilation, and clearance.
Installation precautions 2 CAUTION Never leave tools inside the device. Lifting precautions DANGER Make sure the rack or cabinet housing the device is adequately secured to prevent it from becoming unstable or falling over. DANGER Mount the devices you install in a rack or cabinet as low as possible. Place the heaviest device at the bottom and progressively place lighter devices above.
2 Preparing the installation site Preparing the installation site Before installing the device, plan its location and orientation relative to other devices and equipment. Cabling infrastructure Ensure that the proper cabling is installed at the site. For information about supported SFP and SFP+ transceivers and cable lengths and types, refer to the following Brocade website: http://www.brocade.com/downloads/documents/data_sheets/product_data_sheets/Optics_ DS.
Installing the device 2 • Mechanical loading: Do not place any equipment on top of a rack-mounted unit. • Circuit overloading: Be sure that the supply circuit to the rack assembly is not overloaded. • Grounding: Rack-mounted equipment should be properly grounded.
2 Installing the device 1. Attach the four adhesive feet to the bottom of the device. Refer to Figure 7. 2. Set the device on a flat desktop, table, or shelf near an AC power source. Make sure that adequate ventilation is provided for the system. A 7.62 cm (3-inch) clearance is recommended on each side. 3. If installing a single device only, refer to “Powering on the system” on page 30. Place each device squarely on top of the one below. 4.
Installing the device FIGURE 8 2 Attaching the mounting brackets for an ICX 6430-C device 3. Remove the two-post rack kit from the shipping carton. The kit contains four rack-mounting screws and four cage nuts. 4. Insert the cage nuts in the two-post rack where you want to mount the device. See Figure 8. 5. Using a Phillips screwdriver, mount the device in a two-post rack using four rack-mounting screws, as illustrated in Figure 9.
2 Installing the device FIGURE 9 Installing the device in a two-post rack 1 Rack-mounting screws 2 Cage nuts 6. If installing a single device only, proceed to “Powering on the system” on page 30. If installing multiple devices, mount them in the rack, one below the other.
Installing the device 2 Complete the following steps to mount the device directly to a wall. 1. Use tape to place the Wall Mount Holes Location template against the wall, in the same position that you plan to place the device against the wall. The Wall Mount Holes Location template serves as a guide to drilling the screws and mount anchors into the correct location on the wall in order to place the device in the desired location. 2.
