36 VIP-FE-TX Installation and Conﬁguration

FE-TX Port Adapter Functions

Attaching FE-TX Port Adapter Interface Cables

On a single 100BASE-T port adapter, you can use either the RJ-45 connection or the MII

connection. If you have two FE-TX, 100BASE-T port adapters on your VIP, you can use the RJ-45

connection on one and the MII connection on the other.

Note RJ-45 and MII cables are not available from Cisco Systems; they are available from outside

commercial cable vendors.

Connect RJ-45 and MII cables as follows:

Step 1 If you have RJ-45 connections, attach the Category 5 UTP cable directly to the RJ-45 port

on the FE-TX port adapter. (See Figure 21.)

If you have MII connections, attach an MII cable directly to the MII port on the FE-TX port

adapter or attach a 100BASE-T transceiver, with the media appropriate to your application,

to the MII port on the FE-TX port adapter. (See Figure 21.)

The FE-TX port adapter is an end station device and not a repeater. You must connect the

FE-TX port adapter to a repeater or hub.

Note On the VIP-FE-TX, the FE-TX port adapter can have either an MII attachment or an RJ-45

attachment, but not both simultaneously. The MII and RJ-45 receptacles represent two physical

connection options, for one Fast Ethernet interface. The FE-TX port adapter has a handle attached,

but this handle is not shown to allow a full view of the detail on the port adapter’s faceplate.
