Installing A V400 Virtual Port Extender; Installing An Lrm/Macsec Adapter - Extreme Networks ExtremeSwitching X435 Series Hardware Installation Manual

Installing a V400 Virtual Port Extender

To attach the V300 switch to a redundant power source (HT models only), do the following:
1. Connect the RPS to the included screw terminal connector (use adequate AWG wire for DIN PSUs).
2. Plug the screw terminal connector into the port extender DC input (PSU2 recommended).
3. Connect the:
•
AC power cord to the AC power input socket on the PSU and plug the other end into an AC
power outlet for non-DIN PSUs; or
•
PSU to an AC power source using the instructions included with the PSU for DIN PSUs.
When power is connected, verify that the PWR LED on the switch turns green. If the PWR LED does not
turn green, verify that the power source is powered on and the connection was made properly.
Installing a V400 Virtual Port Extender
You need the following tools and materials to install a V400 Virtual Port Extender:
•
ESD-preventive wrist strap
•
#1 Phillips screwdriver (for clock module) or flat-bladed screwdriver (for all other VIM modules)
Your V400 Virtual Port Extender comes with two mounting brackets and screws for attaching them.
Mount the equipment in a standard equipment rack, in either a front or mid-mount configuration, in the
same way you would mount a switch.
To install a V400 Virtual Port Extender, follow these steps:
1. Attach the mounting brackets to the sides of the port extender using four screws (included) for each
bracket.
2. Align the holes in the brackets with the rack post holes.
3. Secure the port extender to each post with rack-mounting screws (not provided).
4. Connect an AC power cord to the AC power input socket on the port extender and to an AC power
outlet.
5. When power is connected, verify that the SYS LED on the port extender turns green.
If the SYS LED does not turn green, verify that the power source is powered on and the connection
was made properly.
6. Optionally, connect the port extender to a redundant power source.
PoE models (V400-24p-10GE2 and V400-48p-10GE4) can be connected to the VX-RPS-1000
redundant power supply, using an AC power cord. For information about installing the VX-RPS-1000
unit, see
