Functions operate in their default settings unless configured otherwise.

Connecting the Cables

P334T-ML modules 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.
Note: 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 4.3.
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.
Appropriate cables are available from your local supplier.
Table 4.3 displays the different types of SFP GBIC interfaces, their fiber type,
diameter, modal bandwidth, wavelengths, minimum and maximum distance.
