Cabling the Switch 5
Note that you will need a DSU/CSU (digital service unit/channel service unit)
between the WAN connection and the Switch.
Serial Cable
The serial cable provided with the Switch is a DB9/DB25-to-DB9/DB25. This
provides a cross-over (transmit-to-receive and receive-to-transmit). The DB9
connector goes into the Switch and the other DB9 or DB25 connector goes
into your workstation or terminal. You should ignore the extra DB25
connection that is attached.
Connecting the Cables
1. Connect the 10/100BASE-TX LAN RJ-45 connector to the Switch.
2. Connect the power cord to the back of the Switch and to the electrical outlet.
3. Additionally, if you have LAN or WAN cards in Slots 1 through 3, connect
those cables (refer to Installing Optional Cards on page 44).
NOTE
: Slot 4 is not supported.

Extranet Switch Back View
Bay Networks ships a serial cable with the Switch. You can provide the Switch
with a Management IP Address, subnet mask, and default gateway address
via the Serial Interface (refer to page 14 for details). Bay Networks, however,
recommends that you use the IP Address Configuration Utility diskette for
easy initial IP address configuration (refer to page 12).
