interference at his own expense.
WARNING: Changes or modifications made to this device which are not expressly approved by the
party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
INDUSTRY CANADA NOTICE
This digital apparatus does not exceed the class A limits for radio noise emissions from digital apparatus
set out in the Radio Interference Regulations of the Canadian Department of Communications.
Le présent appareil numérique n'émet pas de bruits radioélectriques dépassant les limites applicables aux
appareils numériques de la class A prescrites dans le Règlement sur le brouillage radioélectrique édicté
par le ministère des Communications du Canada.
VCCI NOTICE
This is a class A product based on the standard of the Voluntary Control Council for Interference by
Information Technology Equipment (VCCI). If this equipment is used in a domestic environment, radio
disturbance may arise. When such trouble occurs, the user may be required to take corrective actions.

SSR-GTX32-04
The SSR-GTX32-04 is a copper-based 1000Base-T Gigabit Ethernet module for the
Enterasys X-Pedition platform. The SSR-GTX32-04 provides four ports of 1000Base-T
switched and routed connectivity through Category 5 RJ45 connectors and is ideal for
high-speed collapsed backbones and server-farm connections. The SSR-GTX32-04
delivers full-function Layer-2, Layer-3, and Layer-4 switching and routing.

Options Available
The SSR-GTX32-04 provides switching and routing on hardware, thereby eliminating the
performance bottleneck caused by a single processor. The module supports application
switching (i.e., Network Address Translation, Server Load Balancing, Per-Flow Rate
Limiting, Access Control Lists, and full RMON/RMON 2) and extra features like the
Local Hardware Routing Table, Port Rate Limiting, Aggregate Rate Limiting, and Jumbo
Frames that are essential for Application Service Providers, Multi-Dwelling Unit (MDU)
Service Providers, and Large Enterprise Networks.
The SSR-GTX32-04 offers ten times the bandwidth available through the existing
Category 5 infrastructure and interoperates with all existing X-Pedition Router modules.
This allows network managers to leverage their existing cabling infrastructure and
equipment without an extensive upgrade.
INSTALLING THE MODULE
ELECTRICAL HAZARD: Only qualified personnel should perform
installation procedures.
Handling the Module
CAUTION: The SSR-GTX32-04 is easily damaged by electrostatic
discharge.
To prevent electrostatic damage, observe the following guidelines:
•
Do not remove the module from its packaging until you are ready to install it.
•
Do not touch any of the module's pins, connectors or components.
•
