Connecting Fast Ethernet Cables
This procedure applies to systems that use Fast Ethernet interfaces on the SCC back card for VoIP
applications. Refer to
Appendix A, “Cable and Connector Reference,”
for a cable wiring diagram. If
your system uses OC-3 interfaces, skip this procedure.
To connect 100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet cables, follow these steps:
Step 1
Connect the first network cable to an RJ-45 receptacle on the SCC back card in slot 9 (see
Figure 5-6
).

Connecting Fast Ethernet Cables
Step 2
Connect the other end of the cable to the appropriate network device.
Note
Fast Ethernet redundancy is achieved through the use of appropriately configured network devices.
Step 3
Repeat
Step 1
and
Step 2
for other Fast Ethernet cables.
Step 4
If your system has a redundant SCC, repeat
Step 1
through
Step 3
for the adjacent SCC.
