IMPORTANT:
The ports on the LSWM2SP2PM and LSWM2XGT2PM interface cards can operate only at 10 Gbps
when the cards are installed on the switch.
NOTE:
An LSPM6FWD firewall module, including the handle, adds 75 mm (2.95 in) to the chassis depth.

Connecting cables to the copper ports on the interface cards

An LSWM2XGT2PM interface card provides copper ports. To connect cables to the copper ports on
an LSWM2XGT2PM interface card, follow these guidelines:
•
Use Category-6A or above cables and connectors. The max transmission distance varies by
cable type:
Category-6 UTP—55 m (180.45 ft).
Category-6 STP—100 m (328.08 ft), no interference.
Category-6 SFTP—100 m (328.08 ft).
Category-6A and above twisted pair—100 m (328.08 ft).
•
Do not bundle cables in their first 20 m (65.62 ft).
•
Separate power cords and twisted pair cables at and around the distribution frame.
•
For ports adjacent to one another on the device, the peer ports on the distribution frame is
preferably not adjacent, for example:
If the device connects to one distribution frame, connect port 1 on the device to port 1 on the
distribution frame and port 2 on the device to port 3 on the distribution frame.
If the device connects to two distribution frames, connect port 1 on the device to port 1 on
distribution frame 1 and port 2 on the device to port 1 on distribution frame 2.
•
Keep the device and twisted pair cables away from the interference source, such as a two-way
radio and a high-power variable-frequency drive.
