External Connections
This section contains the external connections for the Catalyst 5000 modules and ports.
• The Catalyst 5000 is a 5-slot rack-mounted chassis with one slot dedicated to the supervisor
engine module and a combination of modules that support online insertion and removal (OIR).
External connections for the modules follow:
— The supervisor engine module has two Fast Ethernet ports. Each port has two connectors,
one MII and one RJ-45.
Note If two cables are connected to the same port, the MII is the default connection.
— 10BaseT 24-port Ethernet switching module uses two 50-pin Telco connectors.
— 10BaseFL 12-port Ethernet switching module uses ST-type connectors.
— 10/100BaseTX 12-port 10/100-Mbps fast Ethernet switching module using RJ-45
connectors.
— 100BaseTX 12-port fast Ethernet switching module using RJ-45 connectors.
— 100BaseFX 12-port fast Ethernet switching module using ST-type fiber optic connectors.
— ATM LAN emulation module (UTP) using RJ-45 connectors.
— ATM LAN emulation module (single-mode and multimode fiber) using SC-type connectors.
— CDDI module (UTP) using RJ-45 connectors.
— FDDI module MMF (multimode fiber) using MIC connectors and (on A/B port card option)
an optical bypass switch (9-pin DIN) connector.
— FDDI module SMF (single-mode fiber) using ST-type connectors and (on A/B port card
option) an optical bypass switch (9-pin DIN) connector.
— EIA/TIA-232 data terminal equipment (DTE) port using an EIA/TIA-232 data
communications equipment (DCE) console cable with DB-25 plugs at one end.
— Token Ring UTP/STP switching module using RJ.45 connectors.
— Token Ring multimode fiber switching module using Volition connectors.
Power Supply Requirements
The Catalyst 5000 376W AC-input power supply uses a power factor corrector that allows it to
operate on input voltage and current within the ranges of 100 to 240 VAC and 47 to 63 Hz.
A second, identical power supply is also installed in the chassis configured with the redundant power
option. Redundant power ensures that power to the chassis continues uninterrupted in the event that
one power supply fails. It can also provide uninterrupted power in the event a power line fails, so
long as the power supplies receive power from separate power lines.
