Installing the HP AdvanceStack Remote 2C

The features of the HP J3257A AdvanceStack Remote 2C are:

Two Slots for Modules. These slots will accept the HP J3138A AdvanceStack Internet Router Modules. (Other modules may be available. Contact your HP-reseller or authorized dealer for details.)

In the Remote 2C, you can install one of each module above or two modules of the same type. Each module is hot swappable so that you can leave the power on while inserting or removing modules.

Auto-Sense of Ethernet or 100VG Connections. You can connect your remote users to your Ethernet and 100VG networks through the two RJ-45 connectors on the front of the Remote 2C. Each connector senses and selects the speed of your network and corresponds to a module installed in the back of the Remote 2C.

Redundant Power. When the Remote 2C is connected to the HP J2962A AdvanceStack Redundant Power Supply, the Remote 2C will be protected by redundant power.

LEDs for troubleshooting. In addition to each module having LEDs, the Remote 2C has front panel LEDs that show the status of the modules and the connections to the Ethernet or 100VG network.

Rack-mountable design. The Remote 2C can be mounted in a 19-inch telco rack using the included mounting brackets.

This guide shows you how to install one or more module(s) into the Remote 2C and how to connect the Remote 2C to your Ethernet or 100VG LAN.
