Location of Ports and Connectors
The WAVE appliance supports two Ethernet connectors and two Console ports on the front of the appliance.
Figure 1-3shows the back panel ports and connectors.
Warning To avoid electric shock, do not connect safety extra-low voltage (SELV) circuits to telephone-network voltage (TNV) circuits. LAN ports contain SELV circuits, and WAN ports contain TNV circuits. Some LAN and WAN ports both use RJ-45 connectors. Use caution when connecting cables. Statement 1021
This section contains the following topics:
Ethernet Port Connectors
Connect a Category 3, 4, or 5 unshielded twisted-pair cable to an Ethernet connector. 100BASE-TX and 1000BASE-T Fast Ethernet standards require Category 5 or higher cabling.
The WAVE-594 and WAVE-694 appliance has two Ethernet connectors that are attached to the Ethernet controllers (see Figure 1-5). The Ethernet controllers are integrated on the system board. They provide an interface for connecting to a 10-Mbps, 100-Mbps, or 1-Gbps network and provide full-duplex (FDX) capability, which enables simultaneous transmission and reception of data on the network. If the Ethernet ports in the server support auto negotiation, the controllers detect the data-transfer rate (10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, or 1000BASE-T) and duplex mode (full duplex or half duplex) of the network and automatically operate at that rate and mode. You do not have to set any jumpers or configure the controllers.
Note There is a third RJ45 connector on the front of the appliance (see Figure 1-1). This is a console port. Do not connect this port to your network.
