1000:
This Amber LED is ON when a 100Base-TX link is last detected. The LED is OFF when a
10Base-T link is last detected (the LINK LED is ON). Upon power-up the LED is OFF as
the last detected rate is not known and therefore defaults to the 10Base-T state until rate
detection is completed.

HARDWARE INSTALLATION
To successfully install the 7880IP-ASI-IP, you will require the following items:
1. Unused IP address on the network or a DHCP server
2. Evertz serial cable
3. VLPro Server IP address
Before handling the card it is important to minimize the potential effects of static electricity. It is
therefore recommended that an ESD strap be worn.
Locate on a 7700 chassis two adjacent vacant slots. Unpack the card and separate the rear card from
the main card. Locate on the rear of the rack the two slots and remove the blanking panels. Insert the
rear card into the back of the chassis and secure using the four screws provided.
Before inserting the front card, connect the serial cable to the board using the serial cable provided.
Now insert the card into the corresponding front slots ensuring the card lines up with the slot runners
on the bottom and the top of the chassis. Push the card firmly into the slot ensuring that when it mates
with the rear plate that is has been securely pushed into a seated position. This can be confirmed when
the connectivity lights for the Ethernet port are illuminated. Do not connect any cables to the rear card
until the initial configuration has been completed (failure to do this could cause unwanted network
issues).
