OmniAccess 6000: Installation Guide
Connection to a regular 10/100 Mbps Ethernet segment
This requires a 4- or 8-conductor Category 5 UTP Ethernet cable with an RJ-45
male connector. The port detects MDI/MDX and automatically adjusts for
straight-through or crossover cables.
The maximum length for FE cables is 100 meters (325 feet).
For cables that run through plenums or air-handling spaces as described in
NEC (2002) Article 300.22(C), the cable should be suitable under NEC Article
800.50 and marked accordingly for use in plenums and air-handling spaces
with regard to smoke propagation, such as CL2-P , CL3-P , MPP or CMP .
Be sure to install cables in accordance with all applicable local regulations and
practices.
Gigabit Ethernet Ports
The GE ports provide high-bandwidth uplinks between the Alcatel Wireless
LAN Switch and the wired LAN. The GE port sockets accept a variety of Gigabit
Interface Converters (GBICs) for versatility in selecting optical and electrical
interfaces.
Approved GBICs
Approved GBICs are typically selected when the line card is purchased.
Although the modules are user-replaceable, for continued safety and reliability
only approved modules from approved vendors should be used.
The following Class 1 GBICs have been tested with this product:
GBIC Type
1000BASE-T (copper)
1000BASE-SX (optical)
1000BASE-LX (optical)
