• One 10BASE-T / 100BASE-TX / 1000BASE-T RJ45 connector Ethernet port for management
connection. In conjunction with EZSwitchSetup, this port supports switch IP address discovery and
configuration, eliminating the need to attach a serial cable to configure the switch IP address.
• One RS-232 3-wire (Tx, Rx, and Gnd) universal asynchronous receiver/transmitter (UART) serial
port to BMC with RJ-45 connector for debugging initial switch setup (if not using EZSwitch Setup)
and factory default restoration. Integral LEDs remain unlit at all times.
• One internal e-USB module provides 2 GB of persistent storage, increased serviceability, and error
logging functionality by facilitating easier firmware upgrades and downloads of the system log files.
• One external USB connector.
• Two hot-swappable redundant integrated power supply and fan assembly field-replaceable units.
• 48 hot-pluggable SFP+ optical transceiver slots and 4 hot-pluggable QSFP optical transceiver slots.
• 64 bicolor (green/amber) LEDs to indicate the status for each port.
• One green LED to indicate valid system power.
• One bicolor (green/amber) LED to indicate the system status.
• Two Ethernet LEDs: one bicolor (green/amber) LED to indicate link at 1000/100/10 Mbps and one
green LED to indicate activity.
• SEEPROM for switch identification.
• Real-time power monitoring.
• Real-time voltage monitoring.
• Real-time fan monitoring including airflow direction.
• Real-time digital thermometers for temperature monitoring.
• Real-time clock (RTC) with battery.
