Cable the Network Management Ports

The following procedure describes how to connect cables to the network management ports. These ports support 10/100/1G/10G Mbps speeds.

Caution:

Keep Ethernet cables separated from power cables by at least 60mm where possible and never run them in the same channel of the rack without segregation.

Prerequisites:

  • Category 6 (or better) Ethernet cable with RJ-45 jacks
  1. Locate the Ethernet cables you plan to connect to the Netra Server X3-2 for Acme Packet.
  2. Insert the RJ-45 connector on the end of the Ethernet cable into the NET0 Ethernet port (wancom0). The release tab on the RJ-45 jack clicks into place when you insert it properly.

    Note:

    The wancom0 and wancom1 ports are common to all supported Netra Server X3-2 for Acme Packet configurations. The wancom2 port is not used on the Oracle ECB.
    This illustration shows the location of the wancom ports on the back panel of the Netra X3-2 for Acme Packet.

  3. Route the cable away from the Netra Server X3-2 for Acme Packet, ensuring that the Ethernet cables are not stretched tightly or subjected to extreme stress.
