Network Requirements

Before installing the module, review the requirements and specifications referred to in this chapter concerning the following:

•10BASE‐T Network (page 2‐1)

•100BASE‐TX Network (page 2‐2)

•100BASE‐FX Fiber‐Optic Network (page 2‐2)

The network installation must meet the requirements to ensure satisfactory performance of this equipment. Failure to do so will produce poor network performance.

Note: The Enterasys Matrix DFE-Gold Series Configuration Guide and the Cabling Guide referred to in the following sections can be found on the Enterasys Networks World Wide Web site: http://www.enterasys.com/support/manuals.

Refer to “Related Documents” on page xvi for more information.

10BASE-T Network

When connecting a 10BASE‐T segment to any of the module fixed front panel ports of the 4H4282‐49, 4H4283‐49, 4H4203‐72, and 4H4202‐72, ensure that the network meets the Ethernet network requirements of the IEEE 802.3‐2002 standard for 10BASE‐T. Refer to the Cabling Guide for details.

Note: If a port is to operate at 100 Mbps, Category 5 cabling must be used. Category 3 cabling does not meet 100 Mbps specifications. For 10 Mbps operation only, Category 3 or Category 5 cabling can be used. Refer to “100BASE-TX Network” on page 2-2 for information about 100BASE-TX networks and cabling.
