ProCurve Switch vl Modules Features Link and Mode LEDs port covers Figure 3.
ProCurve Switch vl Modules Installing the Modules ■ the ports on the 10/100-TX vl Module have the HP Auto MDI-X feature, and the ports on the Gig-T vl Module have the IEEE 802.3ab Auto MDI/ MDI-X feature. These features operate the same way and allow you to use either straight-through or crossover twisted-pair cables for all the twisted-pair network connections. Please see the note on “Automatic Cable Sensing” on page 13. ■ standards adherence: • the 10/100-TX vl Module is compatible with the IEEE 802.
ProCurve Switch vl Modules Installing the Modules Note Note The mini-GBICs can be “hot swapped”. That is, they can be installed or removed after the mini-GBIC vl Module, or the Gig-T/SFP vl Module, is installed in the switch and the module is receiving power. The network cable must be removed from the mini-GBIC before installing or removing a miniGBIC. For more information, see page 9. 3. Verify the modules are installed correctly (see page 12). 4. Connect the network cabling (see page 13). 5.
ProCurve Switch vl Modules Installing the Modules Installing the Module in an Unused Slot Installation Precautions: ■ Static electricity can severely damage the electronic components on the modules. When handling and installing the modules in your switch, follow these procedures to avoid damage from static electricity: • Handle the module by its bulkhead or edges and avoid touching the components and the circuitry on the board.
ProCurve Switch vl Modules Installing the Modules Insert module into the guides and slide it in until it is fully inserted. “Low-force” connector. High insertion force is not needed and should not be used. For best results, push simultaneously near both screws. Figure 4.
ProCurve Switch vl Modules Installing the Modules The module is fully inserted when the module bulkhead is contacting, or very close to contacting the face of the switch. Then tighten the retaining screws on the module until they are secure, but do not overtighten them. Figure 5. Tighten module retaining screws Installing or Removing the Mini-GBICs Note Hot swapping mini-GBICs is supported. You can install or remove a mini-GBIC with the switch powered on, a reset will not occur.
ProCurve Switch vl Modules Installing the Modules Caution Use only supported genuine ProCurve mini-GBICs with your switch. NonProCurve mini-GBICs are not supported, and their use may result in product malfunction. Should you require additional ProCurve mini-GBICs, contact your ProCurve Networking Sales and Service Office or authorized dealer. Installing the mini-GBICs: Hold the mini-GBIC by its sides and gently insert it into any of the slots in the module until the mini-GBIC clicks into place. Figure 6.
ProCurve Switch vl Modules Installing the Modules Install or Remove a Transceiver Note Hot swapping transceivers is supported. You can install or remove a transceiver with the switch powered on, a reset will not occur. a. Slide the transceiver in until it stops. Figure 7. Installing an X2 transceiver b. Push firmly until the gasket seats against the bulkhead. The transceiver should “click” into place. Figure 8.
ProCurve Switch vl Modules Installing the Modules Verifying the Module is Installed Correctly Observe the Module Status LED for the slot in which the module is being installed, and the Self Test and Fault LEDs on the switch to verify the module is installed properly.
ProCurve Switch vl Modules Installing the Modules Connecting the Network Cables Note Automatic Cable Sensing on Twisted-Pair Ports: When the ports for the 10/100-TX and the Gig-T vl Modules are in their default configuration, Auto, both modules automatically negotiate whether the ports operate as MDI or MDI-X, depending on the cable type and the connected device’s operation. As a result, you can use either straight-through or crossover twisted-pair cables for all network connections to these modules.
ProCurve Switch vl Modules Installing the Modules Connect the appropriate network cables to the module's ports as shown in the table below. For more information on the cable specifications, see “Cables” on page 28.

Use only ProCur ve Mini-GBICs and SFPs 1 2 3 Cable Type Maximum Length Gigabit-SX operation: multimode fiber-optic cables fitted with LC connectors 220 meters to 550 meters, depending on the cable used. See “Fiber-Optic Cables” on page 29 for more information. Gigabit-LX operation: single-mode fiberoptic cables fitted with LC connectors.
ProCurve Switch vl Modules Installing the Modules Connecting the 10-GbE Network cables Connecting a fiber cable. 1. Remove the dust covers from the cable connectors and the port. 2. Aligning the notches on the cable connectors with the slots of the port, press the cable connector into the port until it snaps into place. If the Link LED does not go on when the network cable is connected to the port, see “LED Error Indicators:” on page 21, in chapter 5, “Troubleshooting”. 2 Figure 10.
ProCurve Switch vl Modules Installing the Modules Verifying the Network Connections Are Working Check the port LEDs for the newly-installed module to ensure that the port(s) connected in the preceding step are operating correctly. Each port on the switch modules has Link and Mode LEDs near it as shown in the next illustration. Link and Mode LEDs Figure 12. Checking Link and Mode LEDs ■ The Link LED will be lit for each port that is connected properly to an active network device.
ProCurve Switch vl Modules Installing the Modules Default Port Configuration If the slot in which you installed the module was empty the last time the switch was either rebooted or reset (or the power to the switch was cycled), then the module will use preconfigured default parameter values that will work for most networks.
ProCurve Switch vl Modules Replacing or Removing a Module Replacing or Removing a Module Follow these procedures to replace one module with another, or to remove a module without replacing it: 1. Remove any network cables from the ports on the module to be removed. 2. Unscrew the retaining screws enough to disconnect them from the threaded holes in the switch. unscrew the retaining screws Figure 13. Retaining screws Caution 3. Grab the screws and pull the module out from the slot.
ProCurve Switch vl Modules Resetting the Switch Resetting the Switch Reasons for Resetting the Switch Generally, you only need to reset the switch when it needs to recognize a change in its hardware or software (console) configuration.
ProCurve Switch vl Modules Troubleshooting Troubleshooting One of the primary tools for troubleshooting the switch modules is the LEDs on the front of the switch and on the modules. Refer to “LED Behavior” on page 12 for a description of the normal LED behavior. Also, refer to the switch Installation and Getting Started Guide for more detailed troubleshooting information for the switch.

ProCurve Switch vl Modules Troubleshooting Tip Letter Problem Solution C One or more of the switch cooling fans may have failed. Try disconnecting power from the switch and wait a few moments. Then reconnect the power to the switch and check the LEDs again. If the error indication reoccurs, one or more of the fans have failed.
ProCurve Switch vl Modules Troubleshooting Tip Letter 24 Problem Solution G The module installed in the slot that corresponds to the letter that is flashing has experienced a self test or initialization fault. The modules are all tested whenever the switch is powered on, or reset (through the Reset button on the switch, or the Reboot or Reset options in the console or web browser interface), and when they are hot swapped (installed when the switch is powered on).
ProCurve Switch vl Modules Troubleshooting Tip Letter Problem Solution J The mini-GBIC or SFP installed in the mini-GBIC slot for which the Link LED is flashing is an invalid or unsupported transceiver. Ensure you have installed a model B or greater ProCurve mini-GBIC or SFP in the slot. Model A mini-GBICs are not supported in the Series 4200vl Switches.
ProCurve Switch vl Modules Troubleshooting Tip Letter M Problem The network connection is not working properly. Solution Try the following procedures: • For the indicated port, verify both ends of the cabling, at the switch and the connected device, are securely connected. • Verify the connected device and switch are both powered on and operating correctly. • Verify you have used the correct cable type for the connection.
