About IP560 Appliance Network Interface Cards
Figure 19 Gigabit Ethernet Crossover Cable Pin Connections
To connect the IP560 to other network components, you can order appropriate adapter cables
separately from a cable vendor of your choice.
Two-Port Fiber-Optic Gigabit Ethernet NICs
The IP560 supports Nokia-approved, two-port, fiber-optic Gigabit Ethernet NICs installed on a
PMC expansion slot. The IP560 can accommodate up to four Gigabit Ethernet NICs.
When you purchase a Gigabit Ethernet NIC with your IP560, the NIC is installed before the
appliance is delivered to you. For information about how to add or replace a NIC, see
"Installing and Replacing Network Interface Cards."
Fiber-Optic Gigabit Ethernet NIC Features
The short-range and long-range fiber-optic Gigabit Ethernet NICs support:
High bandwidth
Full-duplex mode operation up to 1 Gbps (no half-duplex support)
Link speed auto advertising
Tracing through tcpdump
Compliance with IEEE 802.3z Gigabit Ethernet specification
The short-range multi-mode fiber (MMF) fiber-optic Gigabit Ethernet NICs in the IP560 run on
Nokia IPSO v4.0.1 or higher.
The long-range single-mode fiber (SMF) fiber-optic Gigabit Ethernet NICs in the IP560 run on
Nokia IPSO v4.2 or higher.
You can configure and monitor Gigabit Ethernet NIC interfaces with Nokia Network Voyager.
Specifically, you set the port speed and full-duplex mode with Network Voyager.
For information about how to access Network Voyager and the related reference materials, see
"Using Nokia Network Voyager"
