Connecting Ethernet cables

Connecting copper Ethernet cables

Auto-MDI/MDIX is supported on the Ethernet copper ports on the front panel of the device and the
10/100/1000BASE-T ports on the interface cards. You can use straight-through or cross-over
network cables to connect the copper Ethernet ports.
To connect a copper Ethernet cable:
1. Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to a copper Ethernet port on the device, and the other
end of the cable to the peer Ethernet port.
2. Examine the LED for the Ethernet port to verify that the port is operating correctly. For more
information about the LEDs, see H3C SR6602-I[IE] AI Series ICT Converged Gateways
Hardware Information and Specifications.
NOTE:
After connecting the device to the network, you can use the
network connectivity of the device. For more information about the commands, see the command
references for the device.

Connecting optical fibers

WARNING!
Disconnected optical fibers or transceiver modules might emit invisible laser light. Do not stare into
beams or view directly with optical instruments when the device is operating.
CAUTION:
• Never bend an optical fiber excessively. The bend radius of an optical fiber must be not less than
100 mm (3.94 in).
• Keep the fiber end clean.
• To connect an optical fiber to a fiber port, make sure the fiber connector matches the transceiver
module.
• Before connecting an optical fiber, make sure the received optical power does not exceed the
upper receive power threshold of the transceiver module. If the threshold is exceeded, the
transceiver module might be damaged.
• To connect an optical fiber to a fiber port, first install a transceiver module in the fiber port and
then connect the optical fiber to the transceiver module.
• Insert a dust plug into any open fiber port.
To connect an optical fiber:
1. Remove the dust plug from the fiber port.
2. Pivot the clasp of the transceiver module up to catch the clip on the top. Hold the two sides of
the transceiver module and insert it slowly into the fiber port.
3. Remove the dust cap from the optical fiber connector, and use dust-free paper and absolute
ethanol to clean the end face of the fiber connector.
