Features • Standalone or Rack Mountable Chassis The G‐Series Ethernet switch can be installed as a freestanding unit on a shelf or table. Optionally, it can be mounted into a standard 48.26‐centimeter (19‐inch) equipment rack. • Optional PoE – PoE is factory installed on the G3G124‐24P base system. – G3G‐POE, a module that enables PoE for 24 ports is available for any installed G3G‐24TX IOM or the G3G124‐24 base system. Refer to “PoE (Power over Ethernet) Support” on page 1‐4 for more information. • Power Supplies The G‐Series switch requires 100~240 VAC input and has two power supply slots located in the rear of the base unit. Power supplies must be ordered separately since they are not provided with the base switch. The following power supplies are available for purchase from Enterasys: – G3‐PWR, a 400‐watt AC power supply capable of providing power to a fully‐loaded non‐ PoE switch and some PoE power (requires 15 Amp circuit) – G3‐PWR‐POE, a 1200‐watt AC power supply recommended for full PoE capability (requires 20 Amp circuit) The power supplies are removable. They can be mixed and can be used redundantly with full load sharing, or non‐redundantly. The switch is capable of supporting 48 PoE ports at 15.4 watts fully redundant, and 96 PoE ports at 15.4 watts in non‐redundant mode. For more information about power supplies, refer to “Power Supply Installation Considerations” on page 2‐5. • Power LEDs The two power LEDs indicate voltage for the primary and secondary power inputs. • Fans The G‐Series switch has nine fans in two different sizes located in three zones to serve different cooling functions. It supports fan redundancy, which means that the system will remain operational if one fan fails. Refer to “Fan Management” on page 1‐4 for more information.
Features PoE (Power over Ethernet) Support The G3G124‐24P switch is 802.3af compliant out‐of‐box. The G3G124‐24 and the G3G‐24TX IOM can be equipped with user‐installed optional PoE modules to make them 802.3af compliant. For more information about installing optional PoE modules, see “Installing an Optional PoE Module on the G3G‐24TX IOM” on page 2‐10 and “Installing an Optional PoE Module in the G3G124‐24 Switch” on page 2‐23. The G3G switches and IOMs that are 802.3af compliant provide Power over Ethernet cable connections from their RJ45 front panel connectors to powered devices (PDs) in the network. Power over Ethernet (PoE) refers to the ability to provide 48 Vdc power to a powered device using the same Ethernet cabling that provides data. Modern Ethernet implementations employ differential signals over twisted pair cables. This requires a minimum of two twisted pairs for a single physical link. Both ends of the cable are isolated with transformers blocking any DC or common mode voltage on the signal pair. PoE exploits this fact by using two twisted pairs as the two conductors to supply a direct current. One pair carries the power supply current and the other pair provides a path for the return current. While several proprietary legacy implementations of PoE have been deployed by LAN equipment vendors, in 2003 the IEEE published the IEEE 802.3af specification, which is part of the 802.3 suite of standards. The switch is fully compliant with the IEEE 802.3af standard. It supports the standard resistor‐ based detection method, as well as AC disconnect capability. The switch is also capable of supplying 15.4 watts of power to 96 ports in nonredundant power mode, and 9.4 watts of power to 96 ports in redundant power mode. Powered Device Classifications (PDs) PDs are devices that receive their operating 48 Vdc power through a new or existing Ethernet cable from a switch or other device that can provide a PoE‐compliant port connection. This enables the PD to operate in a location without local power. For example: • Devices such as PoE‐compliant remote EXIT signs and Personal Data Assistants (PDAs), • Devices that support Voice over IP such as PoE‐compliant digital telephones, • Devices that support Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) such as security cameras, laptop ...

Features For fan group 1, when all appropriate temperature sensors register temperatures of 50 degrees C or lower, group 1 fans run at 60% of maximum speed. If firmware detects any sensor reading (on the baseboard or any IOM) above 50 degrees C, all group 1 fans will increase to 100% of maximum speed. In addition, if firmware detects a failure of any fan in group 1, all other group 1 fans will be increased to 100% of maximum speed. For fan group 2, behavior is similar. When all appropriate temperature sensors register temperatures of 50 degrees C or lower, group 1 fans run at 60% of maximum speed. If firmware detects any sensor reading (on the rear of the baseboard or any power supply sensor) above 50 degrees C, all group 2 and 3 fans will increase to 100% of maximum speed. In addition, if firmware detects a failure of any fan in group 2 or 3, all other group 2 and 3 fans will be increased to 100% of maximum speed. Refer to the Enterasys G‐Series CLI Reference for information on using the G3 CLI to determine fan status. Enterasys G-Series Hardware Installation Guide 1-5...

G3G124-24 Optional PoE Module Installation Considerations Installing PoE capability in the G3G124‐24 base switch requires significant disassembly of the switch. Before installing the card, you must uninstall the components described in this chapter, including the following: Unplugging all power and network connections to the switch. Removing IOMs. Removing power supplies. Removing and retaining screws securing the switch cover top and compact flash slot coverplate. Removing the switch cover. Refer to “Installing an Optional PoE Module in the G3G124‐24 Switch” on page 2‐23 for more information. Note: Instructions for installing PoE on the base switch do not apply to the G3G124-24P model since it is already equipped with a PoE card.
Mounting the Switch Placing the Switch on a Flat Surface When installing the switch on a flat surface, the installation of the rubber feet is recommended to prevent the switch from sliding. Also, the surface must be able to support 15.5 kg (35 lbs) of static weight. Caution: To ensure proper ventilation and prevent overheating, leave a minimum clearance space of 3.81cm (1.5 in.) at the left, right, and rear of the G-Series. Do not connect the G-Series to the AC power source until instructed to do so later in the installation process.

Tighten securely. Power Supply Installation Considerations G‐Series switches can have up to two internal power supplies installed. Currently, two sizes of power supplies are offered. The following power supplies are available to be purchased from Enterasys for installation on the G‐Series switch: • G3‐PWR, a 400‐watt AC power supply (requires a 15 amp circuit) • G3‐PWR‐POE, a 1200‐watt AC power supply (requires a 20 amp circuit) These power supplies perform load sharing and may be used in any combination. The following ...
Power Supply Installation Considerations By default, the G3 switch automatically allots power to the base board and to each installed module. Each component’s power consumption is subtracted from the available power and the remaining power is equally distributed among installed PoE modules. A PoE module must be allotted a minimum of 37 watts to be operational. Table 2‐1 illustrates the G3 power distribution. If one power supply fails or is removed (hot swapped) for any reason, the other power supply takes up the load. Power redundancy remains in effect as long as the load does not exceed the power as stated in the Redundancy column. Table 2-1 Power Distribution According to Number of Installed Power Supplies Power Redundancy Power Sharing Supplies Swappable Maximum power 1200 Yes, if power demand is less than The total load is shared by both power the capacity of one power supply.
Power Supply Installation Considerations Allocation of PoE Power to Modules The G‐Series firmware determines the power available for PoE based on hardware configuration, power supply status, and power supply redundancy mode. The system calculates and reserves the correct amount of power required by the installed IOMs and motherboard and then makes the balance of power available for PoE. When any change is made to the hardware configuration, power supply status, or redundancy mode, the firmware recalculates the power available for PoE. The power available for PoE is distributed to each PoE‐capable base board and IOM based on the configured allocation mode: • Automatic mode (default), in which available power is distributed evenly to PoE‐capable modules based on PoE port count. Any change in available power, due to a change in power supply status or redundancy mode or to the addition or removal of modules, will trigger an automatic redistribution of power to the PoE controller on each PoE‐capable module. • Manual mode, in which the power budget for each PoE‐capable module is manually configured, using either CLI commands or the MIBs. The sum of the wattage configured for each module cannot exceed the total power available on the switch for PoE. The configured wattage assignments are used to calculate each slot’s percentage of total available power. If the total available PoE power changes, a redistribution of available power will occur, applying the calculated percentages. When manual distribution mode is configured, if a PoE module is added to the G‐Series switch, the PoE power budget for existing modules will not be recalculated. The new module will have a power budget of zero until it is manually provisioned. Since the sum of the manually provisioned wattages cannot exceed the total system power available, it may be necessary to adjust existing budgets to free up power for the new module. When a PoE module is removed from a G‐Series switch configured with manual power distribution mode, the PoE budget for each module will not be recalculated, based on the assumption that the module removed will be replaced with a new module that should receive the same amount of PoE power. If the power needed or requested exceeds the power available, the system will generate a trap to notify the system manager. For more information on configuring Manual mode, see the Enterasys G‐Series CLI Reference.
To install one or both power supplies in the G‐Series switch: With an antistatic wrist strap attached to your wrist, unpack the power supply by removing it from its shipping box and stripping the packing material. (Save the shipping box and materials in the event the unit must be reshipped.) Remove the power supply from its protective wrapping. Examine the power supply carefully, checking for damage. If any damage is noted, do not install the power supply. Contact Enterasys Networks for instructions. If necessary, remove the coverplate from its slot by loosening its captive screws. Retain the coverplate for future use. Holding the power supply by its handle, position it with the LEDs to the left and align it with the slot opening. Caution: Forcing a misaligned power supply into place can damage the power supply or chassis backplane. Precaución: Colocar de manera forzada una fuente de poder o no colocarla bien alineada podría dañarla y/o maltratar el panel posterior del chasis.
Removing a Power Supply With the power supply properly inserted into the opening, carefully slide the module until it connects to the backplane, as shown in Figure 2‐2 on page 2‐9. The module’s handle should be nearly flush with the back of the G‐Series switch. If significant resistance is encountered before the power supply is seated, remove and reinsert it. Do not force the module into place. Figure 2-2 Installing a Power Supply Module (1200-watt module into PWR 2 slot shown) 1 Power supply 2 Power supply handle 3 Captive screws Secure the power supply to the chassis by tightening the captive screws. If you are installing an additional power supply, repeat step 4 through step 7. If not, ensure that the unused power slot has a coverplate installed over it.

Installing an IOM The following procedure describes how to install a hot‐swappable IOM into your G3G switch. You can install an IOM into any open slot. Enterasys Networks recommends inserting any IOMs before you connect power to the switch as described in “Connecting Power to the Switch” on page 2‐13. Note: An IOM can be hot-inserted into the G-Series switch, but must be removed by following the procedure described in “Removing an IOM”...
Installing and Removing an IOM Unpack the module by taking it from its shipping box and removing any packaging materials, and removing the module from its protective plastic bag. (Save the shipping box and materials in the event the unit must be reshipped.) Examine the module carefully, checking for damage. If any damage is found, do not install it. Contact Enterasys Networks for instructions. Remove the coverplate from a slot by loosening the coverplate’s two captive screws. Insert the IOM in the guide rail of the slot. Gently slide the module into the slot, as shown in Figure 2‐4, until the IOM engages the connector on the backplane and is flush with adjoining coverplates. Once the connection is made, the slot’s status LED flashes green and IOM initialization begins. The IOM initialization lasts for approximately thirty seconds to allow enough time to tighten the IOM’s captive screws. When initialization is complete the slot’s status LED turns solid green and the IOM is ready for use.

Installing Optional SFP/XFP Note: Each combo SFP port in use on the G3G124-24 or G3G124-24P base systems or the G3G-24TX module eliminates the availability of one RJ45 port. In other words, only 24 ports can be active at any given time on components equipped with a combination of RJ45 and SFP interfaces.
Connecting to the Network Caution: Carefully follow the instructions in this manual to avoid damaging the SFP/XFP and G-Series. The SFP/XFP and G-Series are sensitive to static discharges. Use an antistatic wrist strap and observe all static precautions during this procedure. Failure to do so could result in damage to the SFP/XFP and G-Series.
Connecting to the Network Removing an XFP/SFP Caution: Do NOT remove the XFP/SFP from the port slot without releasing it. The XFP/SFP is released by pulling down on its wire handle. Attempting to remove the XFP/SFP without releasing it can damage the XFP/SFP. The XFP/SFP and its host G-Series are sensitive to static discharges.
Completing the Installation Note: Leave the protective covers in place when the connectors are not in use to prevent contamination. Insert the cable connector into the connector until it clicks into place.
