Making Connections to Network Equipment

This section describes the physical connections that you can make between the 
Avaya P330 switch and other network equipment.

Make sure you have the following before attempting to connect network equipment 
to the P330 switch:
•

A list of network equipment to be connected to the P330 switch, detailing the 
connector types on the various units 

•

All required cables (see below). Appropriate cables are available from your 
local supplier.

P334T-ML switches include the following types of ports (according to the speed and 
standard they support): 10/100BASE-T and SFP GBIC
To connect the cables:
1

Insert an SFP GBIC (Small Form Factor Plugable Gigabit Interface Converter) 
transceiver (not supplied) to port housings numbered 51 and 52. 

L GBICs are 3.3V. 
2

Connect an Ethernet fiberoptic cable (not supplied) to the GBIC transceiver. You 
can use LC or MT-RJ fiberoptic cables, depending on the GBIC type you are 
using. For a list of approved SFP GBIC transceivers, see 
www.avayanetwork.com. For fiberoptic cable properties, see Table 4.4.

3

For all other ports, connect an Ethernet copper cable (not supplied) directly to 
the ports. The copper ports can operate with 2 pair (4 wire) or 4 pair (8 wire) 
Ethernet cables (crossed or straight). The maximum cable length is 100 m 
(328 ft.).

4

Connect the other end of the cable to the Ethernet port of the PC, server, router, 
workstation, switch, or hub.

5

Check that the appropriate link (LNK) LED lights up.
