Huawei does not offer this USB flash drive, and you must buy it from other vendors. NOTE Huawei is not responsible for maintenance service of USB flash drives purchased from other vendors. JTAG port Figure 2-5 shows the JTAG port. The JTAG port is an internal port of the switch and is used to check and diagnose equipment faults.
Card ordering information is subject to updates with product version upgrades. The ordering information provided in this manual is for reference only. To obtain latest ordering information, contain Huawei switch distributors or Huawei local office. Table 5-7 provides ES5D21Q04Q01 ordering information.
Crossover cable: The twisted pairs in the RJ45 connectors at two ends are crimped in different sequences. A crossover cable connects two devices or interfaces of the same type, for example, two PCs. Huawei switches support both straight-through and crossover cables and their ports are adaptive to the cable types. Appearance and Structure NOTE l Generally, a network cable is a standard unshielded network cable that uses RJ45 connectors.
If the optical modules you use are delivered after July 1, 2013, use either of the following methods to determine whether they have been certified by Huawei. Method 1: Check for "HUAWEI" on the Label If an optical module has been certified by Huawei, its label contains "HAUWEI", as shown in Figure 7-1.
As a result, data on the suspended bus cannot be read. Improper edge connector size damages electronic devices of optical interfaces. If a non-Huawei-certified optical module with improper edge connector size is used on an optical interface, electronic devices of the optical interface will be damaged by short circuits.
Classified by encapsulation types The higher transmission rate an optical module provides, the more complex structure it has. Optical modules are encapsulated in different modes to provide different structures. Huawei switches support optical modules of the following encapsulation types: QSFP+, SFP, eSFP, and SFP+.
Figures of optical modules provided in this document are only for reference and may be different from the actually delivered optical modules. l All the optical modules described in this document have been certified by Huawei. 7.4.1 SFP/eSFP Modules...
