18 Consolidated "e" Series Hardware Installation Guide
Overview of the “e” Series of Switches
Port Connections
Extreme “e” switches use a combination of the following types of ports:
• Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP) Gigabit Interface Connectors (GBICs), also known as mini-GBICs:
— 1000BASE-SX ports (850 nm optical window) using LC connectors
— 1000BASE-LX ports (1310 nm optical window) using LC connectors
— 1000BASE-ZX ports (1550 nm optical window) using LC connectors
• 10/100/1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet ports using RJ-45 connectors
• 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX ports using RJ-45 connectors
Table 1 describes port configurations available on the different “e” switch models.
Further details on ports can be found:
• “Evaluating and Meeting Mini-GBIC Requirements” on page 31
• “Port Connections” on page 44 for Summit 200
• “Summit 300-48 switchConsole Port” on page 49 for Summit 300
• “Port Connections” on page 61 for Summit 400
Following Safety Information
WARNING!
Read the safety information in Appendix A thoroughly before installing your Extreme Networks switch.
Failure to follow this safety information can lead to personal injury or damage to the equipment.
• All service to components of an “e” series switch should be performed by trained service personnel
only. Service personnel are persons having appropriate technical training and experience necessary
to be aware of the hazards to which they are exposed in performing a task and of measures to
minimize the danger to themselves or other persons.
• Some devices, such as GBICs, contain fiber optic ports. To protect your eyes, you should never look
at the fiber optic ports while they are on, or look directly at the fiber cable ends when they are on.
