H3C SecPath V1000-A Security Gateway

8.4.6 Connecting the Interface Cable

Step 1: Plug one end of the cable to an Ethernet port of the FE module on the security

gateway and another end to the desired device. (For a PC or Router, use a

straight-through cable; for a HUB or LAN Switch, use a crossover cable.)

Step 2: Power up the security gateway and check status of the LINK LED on the FE

module. ON means a link is present. OFF means no link is present and you should

check the connection.

Caution:

Read the mark of a port carefully before you connect it; a wrong connection can cause

damages to the interface module and even the device.

1-/2-port 10Base-T/100Base-T/1000Base-TX Ethernet interface module (1GBE/2GBE)

can provide the communications between the SecPath V1000-A and a LAN.

The 1GBE/2GBE module supports:

The transmission distance of 100 meters over category-5 twisted-pair cable

Three operating rates: 1000 Mbps, 100 Mbps, and 10 Mbps, with auto-sensing

Full-duplex mode

Figure 8-9 and Figure 8-10 show respectively the 1GBE and 2GBE module.
