Introduction to interface cards
This manual introduces the following 10-Gigabit interface cards:
· LSW1XGT4P0—Provides four 1/10GBase-T autosensing Ethernet ports.
· LSW1XGT2P0—Provides two 1/10GBase-T autosensing Ethernet ports.

LED description
Every LSW1XGT4P0 and LSW1XGT2P0 interface card provides a port status LED for each port on the panel. It indicates the operating status of a port together with the port mode LED on the switch.
Table 2 LED description

Port mode LED on the switch |
Port status LED on the interface card |
Description |
|
Steady green (rate mode) |
Steady green |
The port is operating at a rate of 10 Gbps. The LED is fast flashing when data is being sent and/or received on the port. |
|
Steady yellow |
The port is operating at a rate of 1 Gbps only. The LED is fast flashing when data is being sent and/or received on the port. |
|
|
Flashing yellow (3 Hz) |
Power-on self test (POST) has failed on the port. |
|
|
Off |
No link is present on the port. |
|
|
Steady yellow (duplex mode) |
Steady green |
The port is operating in full-duplex mode only. The LED is fast flashing when data is being sent and/or received on the port. |
|
Flashing yellow (3 Hz) |
POST has failed on the port. |
|
|
Off |
No link is present on the port. |
|
|
NOTE: Port status LED of the interface card is affected by the port mode switching button on your switch. For more information about the port mode switching button, see the installation guide of the switch. |
This section takes the LSW1XGT4P0 interface card and the H3C S5820X-28C switch to illustrate the installation and removal procedures. The methods for installing and removing the LSW1XGT2P0 are similar.
The following tools are needed for installation and removal:
· Phillips screwdriver
· ESD-preventive wrist strap
|
|
NOTE: The installation tools are not shipped together with H3C's Ethernet switches. Prepare them yourself. |
When you install or remove an interface card, follow these guidelines:
· Avoid touching the surface-mounted components directly with your hands.
· Avoid using excessive force in the operation.
· If you remove an interface card and do not install a new one, install a filler panel as soon as possible to prevent dust and ensure the normal ventilation in the switch.
Installing an interface card
1. Put on an ESD-preventive wrist strap and make sure the strap is in good contact with your skin and is properly grounded.
2. Use a Phillips screwdriver to loosen the mounting screws of the filler panel on the expansion slot of the switch's front panel and remove the filler panel, as shown in Figure 3.
Keep the removed filler panel properly for future use.

4. Gently push the interface card in along the guide rails until the interface card is in close contact with the switch. (See callout 1 in Figure 5.) Then push the ejector levers at both sides inward. (See callout 2 in Figure 5.)
5. Fasten the captive screws with a Phillips screwdriver to secure the interface card. (See callout 3 in Figure 5.)

NOTE: When tightening the captive screws at both sides of the interface card with a screwdriver or an electric screwdriver, make sure the torque is not bigger than 0.4 N-m. |
Removing an interface card
1. Put on an ESD-preventive wrist strap and make sure the strap is in good contact with your skin and is properly grounded.
2. Use a Phillips screwdriver to loosen the captive screws at both sides of the interface card until all spring pressure is released. (See callout 1 in Figure 6.)
3. Hold the ejector levers at both sides of the interface card and push them outward. (See callout 2 in Figure 6.) Pull the interface card along the guide rails until it completely comes out of the switch chassis. (See callout 3 in Figure 6.)

Verifying the installation
When the switch operates properly, verify that the interface card is operating properly according to the port status LED.
