• Real-time digital thermometers for temperature monitoring.
• Real-time clock (RTC) with battery.
• Connectors:
– One 10/100/1000Mb/s RJ-45 Ethernet connector for the management connection. With
EZSwitchSetup, this port supports switch IP address discovery and configuration, eliminating the
need to attach a serial cable to configure the switch IP address.
– One RS-232 3-wire (Tx, Rx, and GND) universal asynchronous receiver/transmitter (UART) serial port
to the baseboard management controller (BMC) with an RJ-45 connector for debugging the initial
switch setup (if not using EZSwitchSetup) and factory default restoration. Integral LEDs remain unlit
always.
– One external USB Type A connector.
License options
The SAN128B-7 switch uses a capacity-based Ports on Demand (POD) license method. Refer to the
