Using the BayStack 303 and 304 Ethernet Switches

A speed LED (100) is also provided to indicate when the port is operating as a 100 Mb/s port. The LED is off when the port is operating as a 10 Mb/s port. See “Autonegotiation” on page 2-10 for more information on autonegotiation of wire speed.

Like the 10BASE-T ports, all 10/100BASE-T ports are also configured as MDI-X. Table 1-1 on page 1-5 lists the pin assignments for the RJ-45 connector.

MDA Slot

Each BayStack switch is configured with one expansion slot that can be populated with an optional plug-in media-dependent adapter (MDA) to support a high-speed connection to servers, shared Fast Ethernet hubs, or backbone devices. Two types of media adapters are available for the BayStack switches:

Model MTX-1,10/100BASE-TX copper connection

Model MFX-1, 100BASE-FX fiber connection

Both media types support half- and full-duplex operation and have an LED to indicate when the port is operating in full-duplex mode. See Appendix A, “Technical Specifications,” for a full description of the MDA.

Warning: Power to the switch must be turned off prior to installation of the MDA.

Console Port Connector

The console port has a DB-9 male connector used to connect a management terminal to the BayStack switch by means of a straight-through DB-9 to DB-9 standard serial port cable. Using a terminal, you can monitor the results of startup self-diagnostics, perform manual boot configuration and SNMP agent configuration, and customize your network using the supplied menus and screens.

The console port runs at 9600 baud and uses 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, and no parity as the communications format, with flow control disabled.

In less complex applications with no network management, where no configuration changes are required, you do not need to use the console port on the BayStack switches.
