PORT STRUCTURE
2.1
OVERVIEW
The front panel of the 2GXM provides  access to the management (serial console) and fiber ports.  The
fiber ports are SFP supporting 1000BASE-FX transceivers.  The plug-in module features two additional
Ethernet ports for connectivity via the chassis backplane.
2.1.1
Management Port   
PI
SA
The 2GXM features a Serial RS-232 Console Port (aka Craft Interface) which can be connected to a computer
for initial setup and configuration.  The Serial Console Port is accessed through the mini DIN-6 female
DCE interface.  Connect the interface to a computer’s DB-9 serial port using the mini DIN-6 male to
DB-9 female cable adapter (Part # 8082-0), which is included with the 2GXM.
An optional DB-9 male to female straight-through serial cable is available for extension (Part # 8081-3).
2.1.2
Fiber Ports   
PI
SA
The fiber interface supports the 1000BASE-X protocol.  The fiber interface operates in auto-negotiation or
manual mode and supports full duplex operation.  The fiber port can be enabled or disabled via network
management.  A port disabled with the Port Access Control feature will still connect and allow 802.3ah
OAM or IP-less (secure) OAM communication, but blocks normal data traffic.
2.1.3
Backplane Ethernet Ports   
PI
The plug-in module supports two additional 10/100Mbps Ethernet Backplane Ports.  The Backplane Ports
A and B allow Ethernet data connectivity between adjacent modules in an iConverter chassis.  The two
backplane ports can be disabled or enabled via a DIP-switch or network management.
The iConverter 19-Module, 5-Module, 2-Module and 1-Module Redundant Chassis backplanes provide
ethernet data connectivity between adjacent slots or ports.  The A and B backplane ports connect the slots
as illustrated.
