4 Cabling information Cabling information The Mobility RFS7000 Controller has four RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet ports, four Gigabit SFP (fiber) ports, one Out-of-band management port and one Console connector. The diagram shows each of those ports and the cables or devices attached to them. The sections that follow describe detailed connection and cabling information for each port. For software configuration, please see the Mobility RFS7000 Controller System Reference Guide available from the Brocade website.
Gigabit Ethernet on the Mobility RFS7000 Controller 4 Gigabit Ethernet RJ45s Gigabit Ethernet SFPs Installing Gigabit Ethernet SFPs 1. Open the bail on the transceiver.
4 Gigabit Ethernet on the Mobility RFS7000 Controller 2. Insert each of the SFP transceivers into the corresponding ports on the switch. 3. Once the SFP transceivers are properly seated in their ports, close the bails to lock the transceivers in place. 4. Insert the fiber optic cables into the installed transceivers.

Connect the USB flash drive to either of the USB ports. 2.
4 Installing a compact flash card NOTE The switch supports USB flash devices formatted with FAT or VFAT (FAT32) filesystems only. If your flash storage device is formatted with another filesystem you will need to format Installing a compact flash card Compact Flash slot Compact Flash The Mobility RFS7000 Controller contains a Compact Flash slot for file transfers, firmware updates and use by Brocade service technicians.
Rack mount instructions 4 Rack mount instructions To install the Mobility RFS7000 Controller in a rack: 1. The rack mounting brackets are installed at the factory. No additional steps are needed. 2. Attach the brackets to the rack using screws appropriate for your rack’s mounting holes.
4 Mobility RFS7000 Controller console port setup Mobility RFS7000 Controller console port setup To add the Mobility RFS7000 Controller to the network and prepare it for initial configuration: 1. Using the supplied console cable (pictured below), connect the Mobility RFS7000 Controller serial port to an RS-232 (DB-9) serial port on a separate computer (the “configuration computer”). 2.
Supplying power to the Mobility RFS7000 Controller 4 Supplying power to the Mobility RFS7000 Controller AC inlet Rack mount bracket sym_0 1. Plug an approved AC power cord into the power connector at the back of the Mobility RFS7000 Controller. 2. Plug the cord into a standard AC outlet with a voltage range of 100 to 240 VAC. CAUTION An improper shutdown can render the Mobility RFS7000 Controller inoperable such that it could require service by Brocade Support.
4 Verifying the installation Verifying the installation View the LEDs on the front panel of the Mobility RFS7000 Controller to ensure the device is functioning properly. The normal LED pattern follows this path: • During the Power On Self Test (POST), the System 1 and System 2 LEDs both blink green. • If the POST test fails, the System 1 LED will blink amber. If the POST test succeeds, the System 1 LED will be lit solid green. • As the software is initialized, the System 2 LED will blink green.
