Scenarios for Cisco 10/100BASE-T Ethernet Switch HWICs 10/100BASE-T Ethernet Switch High-Speed WAN Interface Cards Step 3 Read the status of the -48 volt power supply and the ports that support inline power. Scenarios for Cisco 10/100BASE-T Ethernet Switch HWICs Cisco 10/100BASE-T Ethernet switch HWICs are designed for use in the following scenarios: • Multiproduct WAN gateway routers for LANs • Same-building or same-campus wiring closets to achieve high-speed connectivity for high-demand network segments Tip For more information on possible network configurations using the Cisco 10/100BASE-T Ethernet switch HWIC, see the Configuration Guidelines for HWIC-4ESW and HWIC-D-9ESW Interface Cards document. Connecting Cisco 10/100BASE-T Ethernet Switch HWICs to Your Network To connect the Cisco 10/100BASE-T Ethernet switch HWIC to the network, perform the following steps: Step 1 Confirm that the router is powered down. Step 2 Insert the Cisco 10/100BASE-T Ethernet switch HWIC into an HWIC slot on the platform. Caution To comply with the Telcordia GR-1089 NEBS standard for electromagnetic compatibility and safety, connect the 4-port single-wide HWIC (HWIC-4ESW), 4-port single-wide HWIC with PoE (HWIC-4ESW-POE), (8+1)-port double-wide HWIC (HWIC-D-9ESW), and (8+1)-port double-wide HWIC with PoE (HWIC-D-9ESW-POE) only to intra-building or non-exposed wiring or cabling. The intrabuilding cable must be shielded and the shield must be grounded at both ends. Step 3 Step 4 Using the appropriate cables, connect the card to your system. • On the HWIC-4ESW card, all four ports support Auto-MDIX, so both straight-through and crossover cables can be used. • On the HWIC-D-9ESW card, ports 0 through 7 support Auto-MDIX, so both straight-through and crossover cables may be used. Port 8 supports Auto-MDIX only when configured in Auto mode. Power up the router. OL-12850-01 6
