3.6 External Ethernet Connectors
IBR has three RJ-45 connectors located on the bottom of the unit, as shown in the illustration in the preceding
section. Beginning with the port nearest the LEDs, the Gigabit Ethernet ports are numbered 0, 1, and 2 (ge0,
ge1, ge2).
ge1, ge2).
All three Ethernet connectors can be used for traffic and IBR management data, but only the one nearest the
LEDs (ge0) can power IBR via PoE+.
The RJ-45 connectors will accept shielded and bonded RJ-45 type mating connectors with a weatherproof
seal. It is essential that only weatherproof connectors be connected to IBR.

3.7 Power Connector
Power must be connected to ge0 as shown in the graphic below. Connecting power to ge1 or ge2 will not
harm IBR, but will not power it.
harm IBR, but will not power it.
3.8 LEDs
Two weatherproof LEDs that are mounted adjacent to ge0 provide a visual means for an operator to
determine the status of IBR. Both LEDs can be deactivated via the CLI. See the CLI Guide for detailed
information. The LEDs can be seen in the

the LED nearest to the radome is the system LED.
When the LEDs are active (the default condition):
The upper LED (when the LEDs are on the left from the viewer’s perspective) is a system indicator and
