Monitoring port pin-outs

The following ports are relevant go Monitoring port pin-outs.


Gigabit Ethernet (GE) ports
GBIC monitoring ports use cables appropriate for the type of GBIC you choose to use.
This includes cabling for failover between the GBIC ports on two failover Sensors.
Fast Ethernet (FE) 10/100/1000 ports
10/100/1000 monitoring ports use Cat 5/Cat 5e cables. The Sensor's normal mode of
operation, using pins 1&2 and 3&6, is to fail-open—that is, data will continue to pass
through the Sensor allowing continued data flow. In this mode, pins 4&5 are terminated to
ground via 75 ohm and a capacitor.
