V400 Virtual Port Extender

Quick Reference

Follow these steps to get your port extender up and

running.

For complete installation instructions see the ExtremeSwitching and

Summit Switches: Hardware Installation Guide at

www.extremenetworks.com/documentation

Tools You’ll Need

• Appropriate grounded power receptacles

located within 1.8 m (6 ft.)

• A readily accessible device for disconnecting

power, such as a breaker or master switch

• Network cabling within reach

• At least of 7.6 cm (3.0 in.) on all sides, for

proper ventilation

• Temperature between 0°C (32°F) and 45°C

(113°F) for PoE models or between 0°C

(32°F) and 50°C (122°F) for non-PoE models, with fluctuations of less

than 10°C (18°F) per hour

If the port extender appears to be damaged, contact Extreme

Networks. See “Getting Help” for more information.

Extreme Networks does not include power input cords with this product.

To purchase the correct power cord for your country, refer to

www.extremenetworks.com/product/powercords/. This page lists

details for purchasing a power cord from Extreme Networks or from

your local supplier.

1 #1 Phillips screwdriver

(magnetic screwdriver recommended)

3 ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) wrist

strap

2 Flat-head screwdriver

Prepare the Site

The installation site must meet the following requirements:

Unpack the Box

Remove the packing material. Break the tape seal on the

non-conductive bag and remove the port extender.

1 V400 Virtual Port Extender 3 Mounting brackets

2 Screws for attaching brackets

Rubber feet

The V400 Virtual Port Extender can be mounted flush with the rack

posts or mid-mounted.

To attach the port extender to a rack:

1 Attach the mounting brackets to the sides of the port extender using

four screws (included) for each bracket.

2 Align the holes in the brackets with the rack post holes.

3 Secure the port extender to each post with rack-mounting screws.

1 Attach the ESD wrist strap to your wrist and connect the metal end

to an appropriate ground point on the rack.

2 Remove the transceiver from its packaging.

3 If applicable, remove the protective dust cover from the connector.

4 Hold the transceiver so that the connector will seat properly.

5 Carefully align the transceiver with the port slot.

6 Push the transceiver into the port slot until it clicks into place.

Install the Equipment

You can install the V400 Virtual Port Extender in a

standard 19-inch equipment rack.

Install Transceivers

(Optional) Transceivers can send and receive data over

optical fiber rather than through electrical wires. This

installation procedure applies to all transceivers.

Note: Transceivers are Class 1 laser devices.

Connecting to Standard AC Power

1 Connect an AC power cord to the AC power input socket on the port

extender and to an AC power outlet.

2 When power is connected, verify that the PWR LED on the port

extender turns green. If the PWR LED does not turn green, refer to

the Hardware Installation Guide for troubleshooting information.

Connecting to a Redundant Power Supply

To attach your port extender (PoE models only) to the VX-RPS-1000

redundant power supply:

1 Install the power supply according to the instructions that are

included with it.

2 Connect a power cable (included with the power supply) to the

output socket on the power supply and the RPS input connector on

the rear of the port extender.

3 Connect the power supply to an AC power source, using the

instructions that are included with the power supply.

4 When power is connected, verify that the PWR LED on the port

extender turns green.

1 Enable VPEX on a supported switch. Refer to the ExtremeXOS User

Guide for details.

2 Attach the port extender to a 10 Gb SFP+ port on the switch.

Safety Notices

Connect Power

The V400 Virtual Port Extender can receive electrical

power from a standard AC power outlet. Optionally, PoE

models can receive power from an external VX-RPS-1000

redundant power supply (part no. 18202).

Installing the system as described in this guide meets the protective

earth grounding requirements of the National Electrical Code (NEC),

UL/CSA/IEC/EN 60950-1 standards. However, in some cases, it may

be necessary to use an alternative grounding method. In these

cases, a 14 AWG wire can be connected between the grounding lug

on the chassis and a nearby building ground point.

Activate the Port Extender

To activate your port extender:

Electrical Hazard: Only qualified personnel should perform

installation procedures.

Risques d’électrocution: Seul un personnel qualifié doit effectuer

les procédures d'installation.

Warning: Extreme Networks power supplies do not have switches for turning

the unit on and off. Before servicing, disconnect all power cords to remove

power from the device. Make sure that these connections are easily accessible.

Avertissement: Extreme Networks alimentations ne sont pas des interrupteurs

pour allumer l'appareil et en dehors. Avant l'entretien, débranchez tous les

cordons d'alimentation pour couper l'alimentation de l'appareil. Assurez-vous

que ces connexions sont facilement accessibles.

Warning: A dedicated Listed circuit breaker rated at 15A is to be used for each

power supply connection.

Avertissement: Un disjoncteur cotée dédiée évalué à 15A doit être utilisée pour

chaque connexion d'alimentation.

Caution: Before mounting the device, ensure that the rack can support it

without compromising stability. Otherwise, personal injury and/or equipment

damage may result.

Caution: Follow appropriate ESD procedures when unpacking and handling

the device. These include unpacking the device in an ESD-safe environment

and wearing appropriate ESD protective gear, such as ESD-safe footwear and

ESD wrist straps where appropriate.

Caution: Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other

than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.

Warning: LASER RADIATION

Fiber-optic ports use Class 1 lasers.

DO NOT EXPOSE USERS OF TELESCOPIC OPTICS

Do not use optical instruments to view the laser output. The use of optical

instruments to view laser output increases eye hazard. Use only UL/CSA,

IEC/EN60825-1/-2 recognized pluggable modules.

Avertissement: RAYONNEMENT LASER

Ports de fibres optiques utilisent des lasers de classe 1.

NE PAS exposer les utilisateurs de télescopique OPTIQUE.

Ne pas utiliser d'instruments optiques pour voir la sortie du laser. L'utilisation

de instruments optiques pour afficher la sortie laser augmente les risques

oculaires. Utilisez uniquement UL / CSA, IEC/EN60825-1 /-2 reconnu modules

enfichables.
