CHAPTER 1 NETWORK REQUIREMENTS Before installing the HSIM-SSR-600, review the requirements and specifications referred to in this chapter concerning the following: • 10BASE-T Twisted Pair Network (Section 1.2) • 100BASE-TX Twisted Pair Network (Section 1.3) The network installation must meet the guidelines in this chapter and in the documents referenced in this chapter to ensure satisfactory performance of the equipment. Failure to follow the guidelines may produce poor network performance.
Chapter 1: Network Requirements 1.2 10BASE-T NETWORK When connecting a 10BASE-T segment to the HSIM-SSR-600 port, ensure that the network meets the Ethernet network requirements of the IEEE 802.3 standard for 10BASE-T. Refer to the Cabletron Systems Cabling Guide for details. NOTE 1.3 If a port is to operate at 100 Mbps, Category 5 cabling must be used. For 10 Mbps operation only, Category 3 cabling can be used. Refer to Section 1.3 for information about 100BASE-TX networks and cabling.
CHAPTER 2 INSTALLATION To install the HSIM-SSR-600 the following items are required: • Antistatic wrist strap (shipped with the HSIM-SSR-600) • Phillips screwdriver • Cable adapter, Part Number 9360222, (shipped with the HSIM-SSR-600), needed to connect the Local Management port NOTE 2.1 Before attempting to use the HSIM-SSR-600 you should be familiar with the IEEE 802.3 Specifications, and T1 Networking.
Chapter 2: Installation 2.2 INSTALLING THE HSIM-SSR-600 Only qualified personnel should install or service this unit. An HSIM-SSR-600 can be installed in any second generation Cabletron Systems device that supports HSIM technology (e.g., 2H252-25R, 2H253-25, 6H252-17). NOTE Refer to the Release Notes for the version of firmware running on the Cabletron Systems host platform to ensure that the HSIM-SSR-600 is supported.
Installing Options 2.3.1 ! CAUTION Optional SSR-600-ECM Installation Failure to follow the procedures in the indicated documentation can lead to damage to either the installed option or the HSIM-SSR-600. Figure 2-1 details the board layout of the HSIM-SSR-600 to show where the SSR-600-ECM Auxilliary Card can be installed. To properly install an SSR-600-ECM to enhance the encryption/compression performance of the HSIM-SSR-600, refer to the instructions enclosed with the SSR-600-ECM.
Chapter 2: Installation 2.3.2 Installing Sliding WAN Physical Interface Modules The HSIM-SSR-600 can have up to two Sliding WAN Physical Interface Modules (SWPIMs) installed. Figure 2-2 indicates the ports in the HSIM-SSR-600 into which the SWPIMs can be installed. SWPIMs may be installed before or after the HSIM-SSR-600 is installed in the host platform.
Installing Options 2.3.3 Installing the HSIM-SSR-600 in an Interface Module To install an HSIM-SSR-600 in an interface module that supports HSIM technology, perform the following steps. 1. Note the ports of the interface module that have cables attached to them. Write down the ports and label the cables to make it easier to reattach the network properly after the installation. Then disconnect those cables from the ports. 2.
Chapter 2: Installation 6. Refer to Figure 2-5 and place the HSIM-SSR-600 behind the module faceplate.

Align the connector on the HSIM-SSR-600 with the pins on the module.
Installing Options 8. Press down firmly on the connector area of the HSIM-SSR-600 until the connector slides all the way onto the pins. Ensure that the standoffs on the interface module align with the standoff screw holes on the HSIM-SSR-600. 9. Fasten the HSIM-SSR-600 to the module faceplate using the mounting screws saved in step 5. Do not fully tighten the screws yet. 10. Fasten the HSIM-SSR-600 to the module standoffs using the standoff screws included in the HSIM-SSR-600 shipping materials.
Chapter 2: Installation 4. Remove the standalone device chassis cover (refer to the specific standalone device documentation for instructions on removing the chassis cover). 5. Refer back to Figure 2-4 and remove the two faceplate mounting screws and the HSIM coverplate. Save the screws. 6. Refer back to Figure 2-5 and place the HSIM-SSR-600 behind the standalone device faceplate. 7. Align the HSIM connector of the HSIM-SSR-600 with the connector pins on the standalone device.
Connecting the HSIM-SSR-600 to the Network 2.4 CONNECTING THE HSIM-SSR-600 TO THE NETWORK Refer to Related Manuals in the Introduction to find the appropriate software manual to configure the host device. The WAN connection must be configured in software before the physical WAN cable connection is made to the network. Refer to the appropriate SWPIM manual for information on connecting the SWPIM to the network. Failure to use the correct cable and setup may cause problems on the network. 2.4.
