2 Network Requirements Before installing the module, review the requirements and specifications referred to in this chapter concerning the following: • 10BASE-T Network (page 2-1) • 100BASE-TX Network (page 2-2) • 1000BASE-SX/LX Fiber-Optic Network (page 2-2) • 1000BASE-TX Network (page 2-2) • 100BASE-FX Fiber-Optic Network (page 2-2) The network installation must meet the requirements to ensure satisfactory performance of this equipment. Failure to do so will produce poor network performance.
100BASE-TX Network 100BASE-TX Network Fixed front panel ports of the 4H4282-49, 4H4283-49, 4H4203-72, and 4H4202-72 provide a connection that supports Category 5 UTP cabling. The device at the other end of the twisted pair segment must meet IEEE 802.3-2002 100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet network requirements for the devices to operate at 100 Mbps. Refer to the Cabling Guide for details.
3 Installation Electrical Hazard: Only qualified personnel should perform installation procedures. Riesgo Electrico: Solamente personal calificado debe realizar procedimientos de instalacion. Elektrischer Gefahrenhinweis: Installationen sollten nur durch ausgebildetes und qualifiziertes Personal vorgenommen werden. Important Notice Read the Release Notes shipped with the DFE-Gold module to check for any exceptions to the supported features and operation documented in this guide.
Unpacking the DFE-Gold Module • Connecting to COM Port for Local Management (page 3-26) • Completing the Installation (page 3-32) Unpacking the DFE-Gold Module Unpack the DFE-Gold module as follows: 1. Open the box and remove the packing material protecting the DFE-Gold module. 2. Verify the contents of the carton as listed in Table 3-1.

Installing an Optional Mini-GBIC Installing an Optional Mini-GBIC This section describes how to install a Mini-GBIC in an optional 7G-6MGBIC. Warning: Fiber-optic Mini-GBICs use Class 1 lasers. Do not use optical instruments to view the laser output. The use of optical instruments to view laser output increases eye hazard. When viewing the output optical port, power must be removed from the network adapter. Advertencia: Los Mini-GBICS de fibra optica usan lasers de clase 1.
Installing an Optional Mini-GBIC 1. Hold the Mini-GBIC with its top side facing up and its 7-pin edge connector facing the port slot. 2. Carefully align the Mini-GBIC with the port slot. 3. Push the Mini-GBIC into the port slot until the Mini-GBIC “clicks” and locks into place.

This can damage the Mini-GBIC.
Installation Rules 4. Grasp the sides of the Mini-GBIC and pull it straight out of the port slot. If storing or shipping the Mini-GBIC, reinsert the Mini-GBIC dust cover to protect the end of the fiber-optic strands. Installation Rules Module Placement and Rules The DFE-Gold modules can be installed in a Matrix N3, Matrix N7, or Matrix E7 chassis. The slot locations in the three chassis are identified in Figure 3-5 along with five module configuration examples.
Installation Rules Example 2 (Figure 3-5, B) Shows the chassis fully populated with 4xxxxx modules. By default, the chassis system can continue to operate after loosing operation of all modules except the module in slot 1. (The loss of operation can be due to module reset, removal, or failure.) However, with the redundancy key installed, the system will remain operational provided that there is an operating module in slot 1 or 2.
Installing Module into a Matrix E7 or Matrix N7 Chassis Example 5 (Figure 3-5, E) Shows a chassis populated with 4xxxxx and 7xxxxx modules. DO NOT install 4xxxxx and 7xxxxx modules in the same chassis. In a 4xxxxx system, the chassis must be dedicated to DFE-Gold modules only. Rule: In a 4xxxxx system, the chassis must be populated with only 4xxxxx modules to operate.
Installing Module into a Matrix E7 or Matrix N7 Chassis 1. Locate the chassis card guides that line up with the slot number in which the module will be installed. (In this example, slot 1 is being used.) Make sure the module locking levers are in the open position (top and bottom). 2. Align the module card between the upper and lower card guides of the desired slot and slide it into the chassis, taking care that the module slides in straight. See Caution below.

To view the receive and transmit activity on a group of attached segments, press the GROUP SELECT button (see Figure 4-1) to step to the group of interest (Groups 1 through 4).
Using LANVIEW Viewing Receive/Transmit Activity on 4H4202-72 On the 4H4202-72, you can view the receive and transmit activity on the RX and TX LEDs. However, only one group of 24 ports may be viewed at a time. To view the receive and transmit activity on a group of attached segments, press the GROUP SELECT button (see Figure 4-2) to step to the group of interest (Groups 1 through 3). Each time the GROUP SELECT button is pressed, a GROUP LED lights up in sequence, indicating which group is selected.
Using LANVIEW Viewing the Receive and Transmit Activity on 4H4284-49 On the 4H4284-49 DFE-Gold module, you can view the receive and transmit activity on the RX and TX LEDs.

Overview of DFE-Gold Module Shutdown Procedure (Special Instructions) Overview of DFE-Gold Module Shutdown Procedure (Special Instructions) Caution: Do not remove a DFE module from an operating chassis system before reading the following information and instructions. The DFE-Gold modules installed in a Matrix N3 or Matrix N7 chassis are interdependent and operate under a single IP address as a single, distributed switch system (hardware, databases, and persistent storage).
Overview of DFE-Gold Module Shutdown Procedure (Special Instructions) Recommended Shutdown Procedure Using OFFLINE/RESET Switch Caution: Do not pull any DFE-Gold module out of an operating chassis before it has completed its shutdown routine. Before pulling a DFE-Gold module out of a chassis, press or tap on its OFFLINE/RESET switch for less than 1 second. Its CPU LED changes from solid green to blinking between green and amber, indicating that the module is shutting down.
