If you are connecting to another Ethernet hub or Ethernet switch, you need a crossover cable unless an MDI connection exists on the associated port of the attached device. The 400-4TX MDA can operate at either 10 Mb/s or 100 Mb/s. - Page 8 Warning: Fiber optic equipment can emit laser or infrared light that can injure your eyes. Never look into an optical fiber or connector port. Always assume that fiber optic cables are connected to a light source. Vorsicht: Glasfaserkomponenten können Laserlicht bzw.

- Page 18 1000BASE-LX Multimode Applications For 1000BASE-LX multimode applications, the longwave gigabit transceivers must be mode conditioned externally via a special offset SMF/MMF patch cord. The offset SMF/MMF patch cord allows the same transceiver to be used for both multimode and single-mode fiber. See your Bay Networks sales representative for more information about the SMF/MMF patch cord.

Page 19: Installing An Mda
Installing an MDA The Uplink Module slot on the BayStack 450 switches accommodates a single MDA. The connection can be either an RJ-45 10/100BASE-TX MDA or a fiber (100BASE-FX or 1000BASE-SX/LX) MDA with an SC or MT-RJ connector. Note: The MDA is not hot-swappable. Power down the switch before installing or removing an MDA. - Page 20 Insert the MDA into the chassis slot (see taking care to slide the MDA onto the guides provided on the chassis. Caution: Make sure the MDA slides in on the guides provided. Failure to align the guides could result in bent and broken pins Figure 5.
- Page 21 After connecting the port cables, continue to follow the instructions in that manual to connect power and verify the installation. Note: The IEEE 802.3u specification requires that all ports operating at 100 Mb/s use only Category 5 unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cabling. Replacing an MDA with a Different Model When replacing an installed MDA with another type of MDA, complete the following steps to clear the switch...
