    Chapter 1      Installing the Switch
      Establishing the System Ground
    Installing the System Ground on an 8700 W Power Supply
    If you have a Catalyst 6506, Catalyst 6509, or Catalyst 6509-NEB chassis with an 8700 W power supply 
    installed, you must attach the system ground lug to the two system ground studs on the power supply 
    faceplate. The extended depth of the 8700 W power supply blocks access to the system ground pad on 
    the switch chassis.
    To attach the system ground lug and cable to the power supply ground studs, follow these steps:
    Step 1Use a wire-stripping tool to remove approximately 0.75 inch (19 mm) of the covering from the end of 
    the grounding wire.
    Step 2Insert the stripped end of the grounding wire into the open end of the grounding lug. 
    Step 3Crimp the grounding wire in the barrel of the grounding lug. Verify that the ground wire is securely 
    attached to the ground lug.
    Step 4Remove the M4 nuts, split-ring washers, flat washers from the two system ground studs on the power 
    supply.
    Step 5Position the grounding lug over the two system ground studs on the 8700 W power supply faceplate. (See 
    Figure 1-33.) Ensure that the grounding lug and the grounding wire will not interfere with other switch 
    hardware or rack equipment. 
    Step 6Install one flat washer and one split-ring washer over each system ground stud. Secure the system 
    grounding lug and washers in place with the two M4 nuts.
    Step 7Prepare the other end of the grounding wire, and connect it to an appropriate grounding point in your 
    site to ensure adequate earth ground for the switch.

    Installing and Cabling GBIC Transceiver Uplink Ports
    CautionWe strongly recommend that you do not install or remove the GBIC transceiver module with fiber-optic 
    cables attached to it because of the potential damage to the cables, the cable connector, or the optical 
    interfaces in the SFP transceiver. Disconnect all cables before removing or installing an SFP transceiver.
    CautionRemoving and installing an GBIC transceiver can shorten its useful life. Do not remove and insert GBIC 
    transceivers more often than is absolutely necessary.
    CautionThe GBIC transceiver modules are static-sensitive devices. Always use an ESD wrist strap or a similar 
    individual grounding device when handling GBIC transceivers or coming in contact with modules.
    To install and cable an GBIC transceiver uplink port, follow these steps (see Figure 1-35):
    Step 1Attach an ESD-preventive wrist strap to your wrist and to the ESD ground connector or a bare metal 
    surface on your chassis.
    Step 2Remove the GBIC transceiver from its protective packaging.
    NoteDo not remove the optical bore dust plugs until you are directed to do so later in the procedure.
    Step 3Check the label on the GBIC transceiver body to verify that you have the correct model for your network.
    Step 4Find the transmit (TX) and receive (RX) markings that identify the top side of the GBIC transceiver. Supervisor Engine 720 Three uplink ports. Two ports require 1000BASE-X GBIC 
    transceivers be installed. One port is a 10/100/1000 port 
    with an RJ-45 connector.“Installing and Cabling

      Attaching the Interface Cables
    NoteOn some GBIC transceivers, the TX and RX marking might be replaced by arrowheads pointing 
    from the GBIC transceiver connector (transmit direction or TX) and toward the connector 
    (receive direction or RX).
    Step 5Position the GBIC transceiver in front of the socket opening and insert the GBIC transceiver into the 
    socket until you feel the GBIC transceiver module connector snap into place in the socket connector.
    NoteFor optical GBIC transceivers, before removing the dust plugs and making any optical connections, 
    observe the following guidelines:
    Always keep the protective dust plugs on the unplugged fiber-optic cable connectors and the 
    transceiver optical bores until you are ready to make a connection.
    Always inspect and clean the SC connector end-faces just before making any connections. 
    Always grasp the SC connector housing to plug or unplug a fiber-optic cable.
    Step 6Remove the dust plugs from the network interface cable SC connectors. Save the dust plugs for future 
    use.
    Step 7Inspect and clean the SC connector’s fiber-optic end-faces. (Refer to “Cleaning the Fiber-Optic 
    Connectors” section on page A-38.)
    Step 8Remove the dust plugs from the GBIC transceiver optical bores.
    Step 9Immediately attach the network interface cable SC connector to the GBIC transceiver.
    Step 10To connect 1000BASE-T GBIC transceivers to a copper network, perform the following substeps:
    CautionTo comply with GR-1089 intrabuilding lightning immunity requirements, you must use grounded, 
    shielded, twisted-pair, Category 5 cabling.
    a.Insert the Category 5 network cable RJ-45 connector into the GBIC transceiver.
    NoteWhen connecting to a 1000BASE-T-compatible server, workstation, or router, use four 
    twisted-pair, straight-through Category 5 cabling for the GBIC transceiver port. When 
    connecting to a 1000BASE-T-compatible switch or repeater, use four twisted-pair, crossover 
    Category 5 cabling.
    b.Insert the other end of the network cable into an RJ-45 port on a 1000BASE-T-compatible target 
    device.
    Step 11Observe the port status LED:
    The LED turns green when the GBIC transceiver and the target device have an established link.
    The LED turns amber while the GBIC discovers the network topology and searches for loops. 
    This process takes about 30 seconds, and then the LED turns green.
    If the LED is off, the target device might not be turned on, there might be a cable problem, or 
    there might be a problem with the adapter that is installed in the target device.
