Attaching Devices to the BayStack 410-24T Switch

This section describes how to attach devices to the BayStack 410-24T switch ports
and how to connect a console terminal to the switch Console/Comm port. You can
use the console terminal to observe the power on self-test results and set up the
switch, if required, as described later in this chapter.
The BayStack 410-24T switch has an Uplink/Expansion slot that allows you to
attach optional media dependent adapters (MDAs). The MDAs support a range of
media types (see Appendix B, "Media Dependent Adapters" for more information
about MDA types available from Nortel Networks). Refer to the documentation
that came with your specific MDA for information about its cabling and LED
indications.
BayStack 410-24T switches provide Fail-Safe stackability when you install the
optional BayStack 400-ST1 Cascade Module to your switches. Installation
instructions are provided with the cascade module.
Depending on your network configuration requirements, connect the RJ-45 port
cables, the console port, and any optional MDA port cables as described in the
following sections. After attaching the devices to the BayStack 410-24T switch,
proceed to
power up the switch.
You can connect the BayStack 410-24T switch to any equipment that conforms to
the IEEE 802.3 standard, such as the following devices:
