1. DESCRIPTION OF HARDWARE Gigabit Uplink Module The Enterasys Networks VHIM1000-S1TX module is designed for use in Vertical Horizon switch models that have a Gigabit Ethernet transceiver slot. At present, suitable units include these Vertical Horizon models – VH-2402S and VH-4802. Detailed information about configuring these modules and advice about Gigabit Ethernet configuration rules can be found in the switch’s User Guide.
1000Base-T Cable Requirements All Category 5 UTP cables that are used for 100Base-TX connections should also work for 1000Base-T, providing that all four wire pairs are connected. However, it is recommended that for all critical connections, or any new cable installations, Category 5e (enhanced Category 5) cable should be used.
2. INSTALLING THE MODULE CAUTION: Do not install this module in any unit other than the VH-2402S or VH-4802. Contact Enterasys for advice on newly released switches that may be designed for use with these modules. The VHIM1000-S1TX module is field installable. Just follow the instructions below.
Power off the switch: Disconnect the AC power cord from the switch. If a redundant power unit (RPU) is present, disconnect its DC cable connection from the switch. Remove network cables: If you are replacing a module, remove the cable attached to any port on the module.

Be sure the new module’s front panel is flush with the switch panel.

Power on the switch: Reconnect the previously removed power sources to the switch. Check the LED indicators for the module port on the switch’s front panel to be sure that it is operating correctly. Refer to “Gigabit Port LEDs” on page 1 for a description of the LED indications.
APPENDIX A. TROUBLESHOOTING If you experience any problems with the module, check the following items before contacting Enterasys Technical Support: • Ensure that the switch with the module is powered up. • Ensure that the device attached to the module is powered up and operating correctly.
The figure below shows the wiring scheme for implementing a crossover cable if needed for connection to the switch’s 10Base-T or 100Base-TX ports. Such a cable may be required when connecting the switch to another switch or a hub device.
1000Base-T Ports The table below shows the 1000Base-T pinouts for a straight-through cable connection. These ports require that all four pairs of wires be connected. Note that for 1000Base-T operation, all four pairs of wires are used for both transmit and receive. Connector A 12 Technical Specifications <- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ->...
