Installing and Removing the Supervisor Engine

Warning Only trained and qualified personnel should be allowed to install, replace, or service this equipment. Statement 1030

All Catalyst 4500 series switches support hot swapping, which lets you install, remove, replace, and rearrange supervisor engines and switching modules without powering off the system. When the system detects that a switching module has been installed or removed, it runs diagnostic and discovery routines automatically, acknowledges the presence or absence of the module, and resumes system operation with no operator intervention.

This section contains the following subsections:

• Required Tools

• Installing the Supervisor Engine

• Removing the Supervisor Engine

Required Tools

You will need these tools to install a supervisor engine in a Catalyst 4500 series switch:

•Number 1 and number 2 Phillips screwdrivers for the captive installation screws on most modules

•3/16-inch flat-blade screwdriver for the captive installation screws on other modules

•Antistatic mat or antistatic foam

•Wrist strap or other grounding device

Note Whenever you handle supervisor engines, use a wrist strap or other grounding device to prevent ESD damage.

Installing the Supervisor Engine

The Catalyst 4500 series Supervisor Engine II-Plus TS is only used in Catalyst 4503 switches. Install the Catalyst 4500 series Supervisor Engine II-Plus TS in slot 1.

Warning Hazardous voltage or energy is present on the backplane when the system is operating. Use caution when servicing. Statement 1034

Caution To prevent ESD damage, handle supervisor engines by the carrier edges only.

To install a supervisor engine in a Catalyst 4503 switch, follow this procedure:

Step 1 Take the necessary precautions to prevent ESD damage.

Step 2 Ensure that you have enough clearance to accommodate any interface equipment that you will connect directly to the supervisor engine ports.

Step 3 Loosen the captive installation screws that secure the switching-module filler plate or the existing supervisor engine (whichever is present), and remove it.

Step 4 Remove the supervisor engine filler plate or the existing supervisor engine from slot 1. If a switching module filler plate was installed, save it for future use. If you are removing an existing supervisor engine, see the "Removing the Supervisor Engine" section.

Step 5 To install the new supervisor engine, grasp the switching module front panel with one hand and place your other hand under the carrier to support the supervisor engine, as shown in Figure 2. Do not touch the printed circuit boards or connector pins.

Step 6 Align the edges of the supervisor engine carrier with the slot guides on the sides of the switch chassis, as shown in Figure 2.

Figure 2 Installing the Supervisor Engine in the Chassis

Step 7 Pivot the two module ejector levers out and away from the faceplate.

Step 8 Carefully slide the supervisor engine into the slot until the notches on both ejector levers engage the chassis sides.

Step 9 Using the thumb and forefinger of each hand, simultaneously pivot in both ejector levers to fully seat the supervisor engine in the backplane connector.

Caution Always use the ejector levers when installing or removing a supervisor engine. A supervisor engine that is partially seated in the backplane will not function correctly.

Step 10 Use a screwdriver to tighten the captive installation screws on each end of the supervisor engine faceplate.

To check the status of the module, perform these steps:

Step 1 Ensure that the LED labeled Status is green (module operational).

Step 2 When the switch is online, enter the show module command. Verify that the system acknowledges the new module and that the module status is good.

Step 3 If the module is not operational, reseat it. If the module is still not operational, contact your customer service representative.

Removing the Supervisor Engine

Warning Invisible laser radiation may be emitted from disconnected fibers or connectors. Do not stare into beams or view directly with optical instruments. Statement 1051

Warning Hazardous voltage or energy is present on the backplane when the system is operating. Use caution when servicing. Statement 1034

Caution To prevent ESD damage, handle supervisor engines by the carrier edges only.

To remove a supervisor engine from a Catalyst 4500 series switch, perform these steps:

Step 1 Disconnect any network interface cables attached to the ports on the supervisor engine that you intend to remove.

Step 2 Loosen the captive installation screws. (See Figure 3.)

Figure 3 Captive Installation Screws and Ejector Levers

Step 3 Grasp the left and right ejector levers, and simultaneously pivot the levers outward to release the supervisor engine from the backplane connector. Figure 3 shows a close-up of the right ejector lever.

Step 4 Grasp the front panel of the supervisor engine with one hand, and place your other hand under the carrier to support and guide it out of the slot. Do not touch the printed circuit boards or connector pins.

Step 5 Carefully pull the supervisor engine straight out of the slot, keeping your other hand under the carrier to guide it.

Step 6 Place the supervisor engine on an antistatic mat or antistatic foam, or immediately install it in another slot 1 in another chassis.

Warning Blank faceplates and cover panels serve three important functions: they prevent exposure to hazardous voltages and currents inside the chassis; they contain electromagnetic interference (EMI) that might disrupt other equipment; and they direct the flow of cooling air through the chassis. Do not operate the system unless all cards, faceplates, front covers, and rear covers are in place. Statement 1029

Step 7 If the slot is to remain empty, install a switching-module filler plate (part number 800-00292-01).

Warning Ultimate disposal of this product should be handled according to all national laws and regulations. Statement 1040

Attaching Module Interface Cables

Figure 4 shows the connector types used to attach interface cables to the supervisor engine.

Figure 4 RJ-45 Connector

Figure 5 MT-RJ Connector

Note Always keep caps and plugs on the fiber-optic connectors on the cable and the switch when they are not in use.

Warning Voltages that present a shock hazard may exist on Power over Ethernet (PoE) circuits if interconnections are made using uninsulated exposed metal contacts, conductors, or terminals. Avoid using such interconnection methods, unless the exposed metal parts are located within a restricted access location and users and service people who are authorized within the restricted access location are made aware of the hazard. A restricted access area can be accessed only through the use of a special tool, lock and key or other means of security. Statement 1072

Warning To avoid electric shock, do not connect safety extra-low voltage (SELV) circuits to telephone-network voltage (TNV) circuits. LAN ports contain SELV circuits, and WAN ports contain TNV circuits. Some LAN and WAN ports both use RJ-45 connectors. Use caution when connecting cables. Statement 1021

Warning Invisible laser radiation may be emitted from disconnected fibers or connectors. Do not stare into beams or view directly with optical instruments. Statement 1051

Configuring Your Supervisor Engine

For information and commands to configure your supervisor engine, refer to the Software Configuration Guide for your switch.

SFP Guidelines

SFP modules are hot-pluggable and field-replaceable, and you can insert them into the eight SFP module slots on the front panel of the Supervisor Engine II+TS. You can use the SFP modules for connections to other network devices.

You can use any combination of supported SFP modules. Use only Cisco SFP modules on your Cisco device. Each SFP module has an internal serial EEPROM that is encoded with security information. This encoding provides a way for Cisco to identify and validate that the SFP module meets the requirements for the device.

The following SFP media types are supported:

•1000BASE-SX (GLC-SX-MM)

•1000BASE-LX/LH (GLC-LH-SM)

•1000BASE-ZX (GLC-ZX-SM)

•1000BASE-T (GLC-T)

•CWDM (CWDM-SFP-xxxx)

Cisco 1000BASE-LX/LH interfaces fully comply with the IEEE 802.3z 1000BASE-LX standard. However, their higher optical quality allows them to reach 6.2 miles (10 km) over SMF cable instead of the 3.1 miles (5 km) specified in the standard.

If an LX/LH SFP designed for operation on an SMF cable is directly coupled to an MMF cable, an effect known as Differential Mode Delay (DMD) might occur. See the Catalyst 4500 Series Module Installation Guide for more information.

This section describes the following topics:

• Fiber-Optic SFP Modules

• 1000BASE-T SFP Modules

• CWDM SFPs

Fiber-Optic SFP Modules

Some fiber-optic SFP modules use LC-type connectors, as shown in Figure 6.

Caution Protect your fiber-optic SFP modules by inserting clean dust plugs into the SFP modules after you remove the cables. Be sure to clean the optic surfaces of the fiber-optic cables with a soft antistatic cloth before you reconnect them to another SFP module. Avoid getting dust and other contaminants into the optical bores, as the optics do not work correctly when obstructed with dust.

Figure 6 LC Fiber-Optic SFP Module

LC SFPs provide duplex single-mode and multimode connections in supported devices. Table 4 lists the cable specifications for fiber-optic SFP module ports.

1 A mode-conditioning patch cord is required. Using an ordinary patch cord with MMF, 1000BASE-LX/LH SFP modules, and a short link distance can cause transceiver saturation, resulting in an elevated bit error rate (BER). When using the LX/LH SFP module with 62.5-micron diameter MMF, you must also install a mode-conditioning patch cord between the SFP module and the MMF cable on both the sending and receiving ends of the link. The mode-conditioning patch cord is required for link distances greater than 984 feet (300 m).

2 1000BASE-ZX SFP modules can reach up to 62 miles (100 km) by using dispersion-shifted SMF or low-attenuation SMF; the distance depends on the fiber quality, the number of splices, and the connectors.


Note When using shorter distances of single-mode fiber cable, you might need to insert an inline optical attenuator in the link to avoid overloading the receiver.

When the fiber-optic cable span is less than 15.43 miles (25 km), you should insert a 5-decibel (dB) or 10-dB inline optical attenuator between the fiber-optic cable plant and the receiving port on the 1000BASE-ZX SFP module at each end of the link.

Fiber-optic SFP modules also use MT-RJ connectors, as shown in Figure 7.

Figure 7 MT-RJ Fiber-Optic SFP Module

1000BASE-T SFP Modules

Copper 1000BASE-T SFP modules use RJ-45 connectors, as shown in Figure 8.

Figure 8 1000BASE-T Copper SFP Module

1000BASE-T copper SFP modules used with the Catalyst 4500 series Supervisor Engine II-Plus TS operate only in 1000BASE-T mode, or at 1000 Mbps. Copper 1000BASE-T SFP modules use standard four twisted-pair, Category 5 cable at lengths up to 328.08 feet (100 meters).

CWDM SFPs

You can connect the CWDM SFPs to CWDM passive optical system optical add/drop multiplexer (OADM) or multiplexer/demultiplexer plug-in modules using single-mode fiber-optic cables with standard SC connectors. Figure 9 shows a CWDM SFP with the optical port dust plug removed. Figure 10 shows an SC-type connector.

Figure 9 CWDM SFP Module (Yellow-Coded CWDM-SFP-1550= Shown)

Figure 10 SC-Type Fiber-Optic Connector

CWDM SFPs come in eight wavelengths that range from 1470 nm to 1610 nm. Color markings on the devices identify the wavelength to which the Gigabit Ethernet channel is mapped. Table 5 lists the CWDM SFPs with their wavelengths and color codes.

Obtaining Technical Assistance

For all customers, partners, resellers, and distributors who hold valid Cisco service contracts, Cisco Technical Support provides 24-hour-a-day, award-winning technical assistance. The Cisco Technical Support Website on Cisco.com features extensive online support resources. In addition, Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC) engineers provide telephone support. If you do not hold a valid Cisco service contract, contact your reseller.

Cisco Technical Support Website

The Cisco Technical Support Website provides online documents and tools for troubleshooting and resolving technical issues with Cisco products and technologies. The website is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year at this URL:

http://www.cisco.com/techsupport

Access to all tools on the Cisco Technical Support Website requires a Cisco.com user ID and password. If you have a valid service contract but do not have a user ID or password, you can register at this URL:

Submitting a Service Request

Using the online TAC Service Request Tool is the fastest way to open S3 and S4 service requests. (S3 and S4 service requests are those in which your network is minimally impaired or for which you require product information.) After you describe your situation, the TAC Service Request Tool automatically provides recommended solutions. If your issue is not resolved using the recommended resources, your service request will be assigned to a Cisco TAC engineer. The TAC Service Request Tool is located at this URL:

http://www.cisco.com/techsupport/servicerequest

For S1 or S2 service requests or if you do not have Internet access, contact the Cisco TAC by telephone. (S1 or S2 service requests are those in which your production network is down or severely degraded.) Cisco TAC engineers are assigned immediately to S1 and S2 service requests to help keep your business operations running smoothly.

To open a service request by telephone, use one of the following numbers:

Asia-Pacific: +61 2 8446 7411 (Australia: 1 800 805 227)
EMEA: +32 2 704 55 55
USA: 1 800 553 2447

Definitions of Service Request Severity

To ensure that all service requests are reported in a standard format, Cisco has established severity definitions.

Severity 1 (S1)—Your network is "down," or there is a critical impact to your business operations. You and Cisco will commit all necessary resources around the clock to resolve the situation.

Severity 2 (S2)—Operation of an existing network is severely degraded, or significant aspects of your business operation are negatively affected by inadequate performance of Cisco products. You and Cisco will commit full-time resources during normal business hours to resolve the situation.

Severity 3 (S3)—Operational performance of your network is impaired, but most business operations remain functional. You and Cisco will commit resources during normal business hours to restore service to satisfactory levels.

Severity 4 (S4)—You require information or assistance with Cisco product capabilities, installation, or configuration. There is little or no effect on your business operations.
