Management port

The Management port provides connectivity to your existing management network through

10/100/1000 copper ports that uses auto-sensing and auto-negotiating to determine the speed

(10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, or 1000 Mbps) and mode (full-duplex or half-duplex) of the port at the other

end of the link, and adjusts port speed accordingly. The Management port on the PowerConnect

B-Series TI24X supports RJ-45 copper connectors, auto MDI or MDIX detection, and has an RJ-45

unshielded twisted pair (UTP) connector.

NOTE

This port interfaces with the CPU only and not the data plane.

Network interfaces

Table 1 describes the network interfaces supported on PowerConnect B-Series TI24X devices. For

network interface specifications, refer to Table 12 on page 54.

FIGURE 3 24 10-GbE ports

Four 10/100/1000 Mbps ports

The ports 25~28 are 10/100/1000 copper ports that use auto-sensing and auto-negotiating to

determine the speed (10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, or 1000 Mbps) and mode (full-duplex or half-duplex) of

the port at the other end of the link, and adjust port speed accordingly.

10/100/1000 ports on the PowerConnect B-Series TI24X support RJ-45 copper connectors. The

output of the show media command displays C next to the ports that have copper connectors

installed.

Gigabit copper ports on the PowerConnect B-Series TI24X support auto MDI or MDIX detection. For

more information about this feature, refer to "Configuring MDI/MDIX" in the PowerConnect B-Series

TI24X Configuration Guide.

LEDs for network interfaces and power supplies

The fiber and copper ports on PowerConnect B-Series TI24X provide status information through the

LEDs listed in Table 2. The LEDs for network interfaces and power supplies are:

• 24 10-Gbps fiber ports (1~24 port) have LEDs located under each of them.

• Four 10/100/1000 copper ports (25~28) have Link and Activity LEDs to indicate port status.

• The Management port has a Link LED and Activity LED to indicate port status. The Link LED is

on the left of the copper connector and the Activity LED is on the right.

• The System power on LED is on the left side of the front panel.

• The dual power supply 1 and 2 LEDs are on the front panel of the power supply (when you are

facing the rear of the device).

Power supplies

Each PowerConnect B-Series TI24X device comes with dual alternating-current (AC) power supplies

(RPS-TI24X). Power supplies are hot-swappable.Figure 4 shows the front panel of the AC power

supplies used in the PowerConnect B-Series TI24X (at the rear of the device).

FIGURE 4 AC power supply front panel

The power supplies are auto-sensing and auto-switching, and provide up to 300 watts of total

output power, having a universal input (100 VAC to 240 VAC) and 12 VDC regulated output.

Power supplies can be swapped in or out of the device while the device is running, and without

opening the device. You can remove one of the supplies without interrupting operation because the

remaining power supply provides enough power for all of the ports.

For power supply hardware specifications, refer to “Power supply specifications” on page 55.

CAUTION

Disconnect the power supply cable from the power source (outlet) before you install it in or

remove it from the device. Failure to do this can result in damage to the power supply or the

device, or both (the device can be running while a power supply is being installed or removed, but

the power supply itself should not be connected to a power source).

General requirements

To manage the system, you will need the following items for serial connection to a Layer 2 or Layer

3 switch:

• A management station, such as a PC running a terminal emulation application.

• A straight-through EIA or TIA DB-9 serial cable (F/F). If you prefer to build your own cable, refer

to the pinout information in “Attaching a PC or terminal” on page 20.

• Use the serial connection to perform basic configuration tasks, such as assigning an IP

address and network mask. This information is required to manage the system using the

Brocade Network Advisor or using the CLI through Telnet.

Summary of installation tasks

Follow the steps listed below to install your PowerConnect B-Series TI24X device. Details for each

of these steps are provided in this chapter and in the following chapter.

TABLE 3 Summary of installation tasks

Task No. Task Where to Find More Information

1 Ensure that the physical environment where the device will be

installed has the proper cabling and ventilation.

“Preparing the installation site”

on page 15

2 Install the Dell PowerConnect device on a desktop or in an

equipment rack. Devices may also be wall-mounted.

“Installing the device” on

page 15

3 When the device is installed, plug the PDU power cords (C13-C14)

into a nearby power source that adheres to the regulatory

requirements outlined in this manual.

“Powering on the system” on

page 18

4 Verify that power LED is on after the system is powered-on. “Verifying proper operation” on

page 19

5 Attach a terminal or PC to the Dell PowerConnect device. This

enables you to configure the device through the Command Line

Interface (CLI).

“Attaching a PC or terminal” on

page 20

6 No default password is assigned to the CLI. For additional access

security, assign a password.

“Assigning permanent

passwords” on page 23

7 Before attaching equipment to the device, you must configure an

interface IP address to the subnet on which it will be located. Initial

IP address configuration is performed using the CLI with a direct

serial connection.

“Configuring IP addresses” on

page 25

8 Once you power-on the device and assign IP addresses, the system

is ready to accept network equipment.

“Connecting network devices”

on page 26

9 Test IP connectivity by pinging other devices and tracing routes. “Testing connectivity” on

page 29

10 Continue configuration using the CLI. You also can use Brocade

Network Advisor to manage the device.
