Limitations

Notice: Government regulations (such as those prescribed by OSHA or European Community Directives) may govern noise level exposure in the workplace and may apply to you and your system installation. The actual sound pressure levels in your installation depend upon a variety of factors, including the number of racks in the installation; the size, materials, and configuration of the room; the noise levels from other equipment; the room ambient temperature, and employees' location in relation to the equipment. Further, compliance with such government regulations also depends upon a variety of additional factors, including the duration of employees' exposure and whether employees wear hearing protection. IBM recommends that you consult with qualified experts in this field to determine whether you are in compliance with the applicable regulations.

Planning information

Customer responsibilities

Planning information, including customer responsibilities, physical planning, and installability is available in the specific product planning manuals on the following Web site

http://www.ibm.com/systems/networking

You are responsible for downloading or obtaining from IBM, and installing designated Machine Code (microcode, basic input/output system code (called "BIOS"), utility programs, device drivers, and diagnostics delivered with an IBM machine) and other software updates in a timely manner from an IBM Internet Web site or from other electronic media, and following the instructions that IBM provides. You may request IBM to install Machine Code changes; however, you may be charged for that service.

Cable orders

The media installed in the chassis require appropriate cables for connectivity. Cables must be supplied by the customer. 10 Gbps optical XFP, 10 Gbps optical SFP+, or 1 Gbps optical SFP transceivers require single-mode fiber (SMF) or multimode fiber (MMF) terminating in a LC connector. Refer to the media description for proper cable type. 10 Gbps copper XFP transceivers require CX4-grade copper cables. 1 Gbps copper SFP transceivers with RJ-45 ports or RJ-45 ports on interface modules require CAT5e or higher cabling. Mini RJ-21 connectors require MRJ21 to RJ45 breakout cables.

For information on available products, and where to buy MRJ21 cabling and patch panels, contact your IBM representative or visit
