Physical Description

Using the 8-port TokenSpeed and TokenSpeed/MCP Switch Modules

•Bootstrap Protocol (BootP) and Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) support

•SpeedView™ application for conﬁguration management and monitoring, available for Windows environments over RS-232 and SNMP

For additional information about SpeedView, refer to Using SpeedView 2.1 for Windows.

Physical Description

The TokenSpeed module (see Figure 1-1) is an assembly that consists of a printed circuit board with a metal module faceplate. The module has inserter/extractor levers and captive retaining screws on each side of the front panel. The module occupies a single slot in the Centillion switch chassis.

Figure 1-1. Hardware features of the TokenSpeed module

The module front panel contains eight RJ-45 connectors for the token ring ports and an array of port LEDs that indicate ring insertion and port activity. The TokenSpeed/MCP module also has a Mini DIN 8 connector for the serial MCP port.

For descriptions of the LEDs, see “TokenSpeed Module LEDs” on page 3-8. For cable and connector speciﬁcations, see Appendix B, “Cables.”
