Description
A male DB-9 serial port to which you can make a console
connection using an RS-232 (or "null modem") cable. The pin
assignments are the same as those on the HiveManager and on the
device (see "Ethernet and Console Ports" on page
The management station from which you make a serial connection
to the HiveManager must have a VT100 emulation program, such as

following are the serial connection settings: bits per second: 9600,
data bits: 8, parity: none, stop bits: 1, flow control: none. The default

connection, you can access the Linux operating system.
The MGT and LAN Ethernet ports are compatible with
10/100/1000-Mbps connections, automatically negotiate half- and
full-duplex mode with the connecting devices, and support RJ-45
connectors. They are autosensing and automatically adjust to
straight-through and cross-over Ethernet cables. The two ports allow
you to separate traffic between the HiveManager and its
administrators from traffic between the HiveManager and the
devices it manages. The wiring terminates the same way as that on
the standard capacity HiveManager (see
Ports" on page 42).
The reset button allows you to reboot the High Capacity
HiveManager. Insert a paper clip, or something similar, into the hole
and press the reset button between 1 and 5 seconds. After releasing
the button, the Power LED goes dark, and then glows steady amber
while the software loads and the system performs a self-test. After
the software finishes loading, the Power LED glows steady green
The power LED conveys the operational states for the system power:
dark = no power; steady green = powered on.
The on and off switch controls the power to the HiveManager.
The serial number label contains the serial number for the device.
The three system fans maintain an optimum operating temperature.
Be sure that air flow through the system fan vents is not obstructed.
There are two power supplies. Each three-prong AC power inlet is a
C14 chassis plug through which you can connect the HiveManager
to a 100 – 240-volt AC power source using the 10-amp/125-volt IEC
power cords that ship with the product. By cabling each power
supply to a different source, they provide redundancy in the event
of a single power failure. Each power supply has a fan that maintains
its temperature. It is important that nothing obstructs the air flow to
these fans so that the power supplies do not overheat.
