M4300 Intelligent Edge Series Fully Managed Stackable Switches
Get Started User Manual20
For example, if a switch with unit number 1 includes an APM402XL port card in slot 9, port 1
on the port card is connected to four individual port cards, and port 2 on the port card is
connected to another single 40G port, the port numbering is as follows: 1/9/1, 1/9/2, 1/9/3,
1/9/4, and 1/9/5.
By default, the 40G ports on the APM402XL port card (that is, port 1 and port 5) are active,
which means that they are in the attached state, can be detected, and you can use them.
The
expandable 10G ports on the APM402XL port card (that is, ports 2–4 on the first 40G port
and ports 6–8 on the second 40G port) are nonactive, which means that they are in the
detached state and you cannot use them. However, you can configure them to be in the
attached state so that you can use them (see
Configure Expandable Port Settings on
page 275).
Third-party TPM404H HDMI Port Card for model M4300-96X
For the third-party TPM404H HDMI port card, the numbering is as follow:
• The unit is the number that is assigned to the switch, either automatically generated and
assigned by the system, or manually assigned.
The unit range is from 1 to 8.
• The slot is one of the 6 upper slots that this model supports.
Therefore, the slot number
ranges from 1 to 6.
Note: Do not insert a TPM404H port card in any of the lower slots (7 to 12) of
the switch.
• Each slot can accommodate one port card, and each port card provides four ports.
Therefore, the port range is from 1 to 4.
For example, the third HDMI port in the fifth slot of a switch model M4300-96X with a unit
number 1 is designated as 1/5/3. Similarly, the very first HDMI port on the switch is 1/1/1 and
the very last HDMI port is 1/6/4.
Slot Configuration for model M4300-96X
By default, the slots of the M4300-96X are configured as empty slots, that is, as slots in which
no port cards are installed. None of the slots are preconfigured. For information about
configuring slots, see
Configure and View Information About Slots and Port Cards on
page 47.
PoE Operation and Configuration for model M4300-96X
The PoE feature supports port cards in the slots of switch model M4300-96X:
• When you start switch model M4300-96 with
APM408P PoE port cards already installed,
the switch initializes these port cards for PoE operation. Any existing configurations for
the slots is automatically applied. Therefore, PoE is operational immediately after the
switch completes its startup process.
