274 Extreme Networks Consolidated "e" and "i" Series Hardware Installation Guide
BlackDiamond 6800 Series I/O Modules
NOTE
If congestion is detected on a port with flow control enabled, a flow control PAUSE frame is sent out
that port. The PAUSE frame is not sent out on the other port in the group.
The G24T
3
module supports distances of up to 100 meters over CAT 5 cabling.
LEDs
The G24T
3
module has the following LEDs:
• Module status
• Port status
• Diagnostics
For information about the LEDs and their activity on the G24T
3
module, see “I/O Module LEDs” on
page 293.
Software Requirements
The G24T
3
module requires ExtremeWare version 7.0.1b5 or later and BootROM 7.8 or later on the
switch.
Hardware Requirements
Extreme Networks recommends using iPower version power supplies (part numbers 50020, 50021,
50022) with F96Ti modules in a BlackDiamond 6800 chassis. A BlackDiamond 6800 chassis with the
original power supplies (part number 50012) will power fewer G24T
3
modules than a chassis with
iPower power supplies.
Table 58 lists the number of G24T
3
modules that you can install in a BlackDiamond chassis depending
on which power supplies are installed.
