Connecting Cables To The Copper Ports On The Interface Cards - H3C S5800-EI Series Installation Manual

Connecting cables to the copper ports on the interface cards

The LSWM2XGT2PM and LSWM2XGT8PM interface cards provide copper ports. To connect cables
to the copper ports on the LSWM2XGT2PM and LSWM2XGT8PM interface cards, follow these
guidelines:
•
Use category-6A or above cables and connectors.
•
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.
