¹MMF=multimode fiber
²Mode-conditioning patch cord (CAB-GELX-625 or equivalent) is required. Using an ordinary patch cord with MMF, 1000BaseLX/LH GBICs, and a short link distance (less than 50 m) can cause transceiver saturation resulting in an elevated bit error rate (BER). In addition, when using the LX/LH GBIC with 62.5-micron diameter MMF, you must install a mode-conditioning patch cord between the GBIC and the MMF cable on both the transmit and receive ends of the link. The mode-conditioning patch cord is required for link distances greater than 984 ft (300 m).
³SMF=single-mode fiber
⁴MIB=Management Information Base
⁵VTP=VLAN Trunk Protocol

Note The mode-conditioning patch cord (CAB-GELX-625 or equivalent) is required to comply with IEEE standards. The IEEE found that link distances could not be met with certain types of fiber-optic cable cores. The solution is to launch light from the laser at a precise offset from the center by using the mode-conditioning patch cord. At the output of the patch cord, the LX/LH GBIC is compliant with the IEEE 802.3z standard for 1000BaseLX.

Connector Output Signal and Cable Pinout Specifications

This section lists and defines the output signals for ports on the supervisor engine module, switching modules, and the RSM. This section also defines the cable pinouts for certain interface cable connectors that connect modules to the external network. Pins that are not specifically listed are not connected.

The following is a list of the signal summaries contained in this appendix:

Fast Ethernet MII Connector Output Signals

Most Ethernet transceivers require a transceiver cable to connect an Ethernet transceiver to the supervisor engine module and Ethernet switching module Ethernet ports. Some unshielded twisted-pair (10BaseT) transceivers are compact enough to connect directly to the Ethernet module ports without impeding other connections. For descriptions of Ethernet transceivers, connectors, and cables, see Chapter 2, "Installation Preparation."

Table A-14 lists the output signals for the 40-pin media-independent interface (MII) Fast Ethernet connector on the supervisor engine module.

Note Table A-14 lists the output signals from the MII connector on the supervisor engine module, not the pinouts of the cable connecting to the module.

Output Signals

Pin	Description
1	+5V to secondary switch
2	+5V to primary switch
3	Ground to enable primary switch
4	Ground to enable secondary switch
5	Sense circuit---1 kohm to +5V
6	Ground---Sense circuit return
