3.5CONNECTING TO THE NETWORK

This section provides the procedures for connecting unshielded twisted pair (UTP) segments to the modules.

NOTE

If the device is being installed in a network using SmartTrunking, there are rules concerning the cable connections and port configurations that must be followed for SmartTrunking to operate properly. Before connecting the cables, refer to the Cabletron Systems SmartTrunk User’s Guide for the configuration information.

To make connections to an optional HSIM installed in the HSIM slot of a SmartSwitch, refer to the instructions shipped with that device.

When facing the front panel of a 6E233-49 SmartSwitch, the top-left RJ21 is the connector for 10BASE-T ports 1 through 12; bottom left, ports 13 through 24; top-right, ports 25 through 36; and bottom-right, ports 37 through 48. All 48 ports have internal crossovers.

To connect an RJ21, proceed as follows:

1.Ensure that the device connected to the other end of the segment is powered ON.

2.If using an RJ21 straight connector, plug it into the appropriate RJ21 port as shown in

Figure 3-2, or if using the RJ21 right-angled adapter supplied with the device, insert it as shown in Figure 3-3. The RJ21 right-angled adapter enables the cables to be dressed closely along the front of the device.
