Chapter 4. Completing the installation

This chapter provides instructions for connecting the copper pass-thru module
to your existing network infrastructure.
The module automatically configures itself to operate in several networking
environments. No manual configuration or special device drivers are needed.
See the documentation for your existing network infrastructure for
configuration information.

Cable connection

The copper pass-thru module is connected to existing network infrastructure
using copper CAT5E cables. One cable comes with the copper pass-thru
module. A sample copper pass-thru module cable is shown below:
The CAT5E cable connectors that are attached to your network infrastructure
are numbered to identify their port channel. See Table 1 on page 24 for
blade-server-to-port mapping information.
