10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet Ports

The 10/100/1000 Ethernet ports use standard RJ-45 connectors with Ethernet pin-outs. The maximum cable
length is 328 feet (100 meters). The 100BASE-TX and 1000BASE-T traffic requires Category 5, Category
5e, or Category 6 unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable. The 10BASE-T traffic can use Category 3 or
Category 4 UTP cable.
The auto-negotiation feature is enabled by default. The switch ports configure themselves to operate at the
speed of attached devices. If the attached device does not support auto-negotiation, you can explicitly set the
switch port speed and the duplex parameters. To maximize performance, either let the ports auto-negotiate
both speed and duplex, or set the port speed and duplex parameters on both ends of the connection.
For simplified cabling, the automatic medium-dependent interface crossover (auto-MDIX) feature is
enabled by default. The switch detects the required cable type for copper Ethernet connections and
configures the interface accordingly. You can use either a crossover or a straight-through cable for
connections to a switch 10/100/1000 Ethernet port, regardless of the type of device on the other end of the
connection.
SFP Modules
The SFPs listed in Table 1-2 are supported in Cisco ME1200 NID. Please contact Cisco for details on

Management Options
There are multiple options to manage the Cisco ME1200 NID.
Management Option 1
In this model, there will be a Cisco UPE and a Cisco Edge device. The NID will be downstream device, on
the Cisco UPE. A UPE NID Controller software subsystem on the ME3600 UPE will be used to manage the
NID. Refer to the UPE NID Controller configuration guide for the ME3600.
Management Option 2
In this model, the UPE is not a Cisco device. The NID could be managed by Cisco PRIME. Refer to the
1-6 OL-31962-04
Management Options
PRIME reference guide.
Management Option 3
In this model, another Cisco edge router like ASR -9K directly connects to the NID. There is no UPE, and
there is unlikely to be a UPE NID Controller subsystem in the ASR 9K. Such customers may use PRIME or
a 3rd party NMS.
Network Configurations
See the switch software configuration guide on Cisco.com for an explanation of network configuration
concepts. The software configuration guide also provides examples of network configurations that use the
switch to create dedicated network segments that are interconnected through Ethernet connections.

Installation Guidelines
Caution The intra-building port(s) of the equipment or subassembly is suitable for connection to intra-building
or unexposed wiring or cabling only. The intra-building port(s) of the equipment or subassembly MUST
NOT be metallically connected to interfaces which connect to the OSP or its wiring. These interfaces
are designed for use as intra-building interfaces only (Type 2 or Type 4 ports as described in
GR-1089-CORE, Issue 5) and require isolation from the exposed OSP cabling. The addition of Primary
Protectors is not sufficient protection in order to connect these interfaces metallically to OSP wiring.
You can use the grounding lug to attach a wrist strap for ESD protection during servicing.
Warning To prevent the system from overheating, do not operate it in an area that exceeds the maximum
recommended ambient temperature of:
149•F (65•C) Statement 1047
Warning This unit might have more than one power supply connection. All connections must be removed
to de-energize the unit. Statement 1028
Installation Guidelines
Before installing the switch, verify that these guidelines are met:
• For Ethernet ports and 1000BASE-T SFP module ports, cable lengths from the switch to connected
devices can be up to 328 feet (100 meters).
• For cable requirements for 1000BASE-T SFP module connections, see the “Cable Pin-outs” section on
figure B-7.
• Operating environment is within the ranges listed in Appendix A, "Technical Specifications"
• Front-panel indicators can be easily read, and access to ports is sufficient for unrestricted cabling
• AC power cord reaches from the power outlet to the connector.
• Cabling is away from sources of electrical noise, such as radios, power lines, and fluorescent lighting
fixtures. Make sure that the cabling is safely away from other devices that might damage the cables.
• Airflow around the switch and through the vents is unrestricted.
• For an outside plant installation (cell site cabinet, hut etc.), it is required that the ME 1200 switch be
protected against airborne contaminants, dust, moisture, insects, pests, corrosive gases, polluted air or
other reactive elements present in the outside air. To achieve this level of protection, we recommend that
the unit be installed in a fully sealed enclosure or cabinet. Examples of such cabinets include IP65
cabinets with heat exchanger complying with Telecordia GR487. Temperature must be maintained
within –40ºC to 65ºC.
Note If the switch is installed in a closed or multi-rack assembly, the temperature around it might be greater than
normal room temperature.
• Before you connect the switch to a power source, note the power consumption specifications in
Appendix A, "Technical Specifications"
OL-31962-04 2-3
Installation the Switch
Verifying Switch Operation

Before installing the switch in a rack, on a wall, or on a table or shelf, you should power the switch and
verify that the switch passes POST.
• To power on the AC switch, connect one end of the AC power cord to the AC power connector on the
switch, and connect the other end of the power cord to an AC power outlet.
• To power on a DC switch, see Chapter 3, "Wiring the DC Input Power Source"
When the switch powers on, it automatically begins the POST, a series of tests that verifies that the switch
functions properly. When the switch begins POST. When POST completes successfully, the system LED
solid green.

Step 2 Set the device on a flat surface near a power source, making sure there are at least two inches of space on all
sides for proper air flow.
Installing SFP Modules

Figure 2-7 shows a SFP module that has a bale-clasp latch.
OL-31962-04 2-9
Note We strongly recommend that you do not install or remove fiber-optic SFP modules with cables attached
because of the potential damage to the cables, the cable connector, or the optical interfaces in the SFP module.
Disconnect all cables before removing or installing an SFP module. Removing and installing an SFP module
can shorten its useful life. Do not remove and insert SFP modules more often than is absolutely necessary.
Figure 2-7 SFP Module with a Bale-clasp Latch
Step 1 Attach an ESD-preventive wrist strap to your wrist and to a bare metal surface. Find the send (TX) and receive
(RX) markings that identify the top side of the SFP module.
Step 2 On some SFP modules, the send and receive (TX and RX) markings might be replaced by arrows that show
the direction of the connection, either send or receive (TX or RX).
Step 3 Align the SFP module in front of the slot opening and push until you feel the connector on the module snap
into place in the rear of the slot (see Figure 2-8).
Figure 2-8 Installing a SFP Module into a SFP Module Slot
Step 4 For fiber-optic SFP modules, remove the dust plugs from the optical ports, and store them for later use.
Note Do not remove the dust plugs from the fiber-optic SFP module port or the rubber caps from the
fiber-optic cable until you are ready to connect the cable. The plugs and caps protect the SFP module
ports and cables from contamination and ambient light.

Step 5 Insert the LC cable connector into the SFP module.
Removing SFP Modules

Step 1 Attach an ESD-preventive wrist strap to your wrist and to a bare metal surface.
Step 2 Disconnect the cable from the SFP module. For reattachment, note which cable connector plug is send (TX)
and which is receive (RX).
Step 3 Insert a dust plug into the optical ports of the SFP module to keep the optical interfaces clean.
Step 4 Pull the bale out and down to eject the module.
Figure 2-9
Step 5 Grasp the SFP module, and carefully remove it from the module slot.
Step 6 For fiber-optic SFP modules, insert a dust plug into the optical ports of the SFP module to keep the optical
interfaces clean.
Step 7 Place the removed SFP module in an antistatic bag or other protective environment.
Connecting to the 10/100/1000 Ports

The switch 10/100/1000 ports configure themselves to operate at the speed of attached devices. If the
attached ports do not support auto-negotiation, you can explicitly set the speed and duplex parameters.
Connecting devices that do not auto-negotiate or that have their speed and duplex parameters manually set
can reduce performance or result in no linkage.
To maximize performance, choose one of these methods for configuring the Ethernet ports:
• Let the ports auto-negotiate both speed and duplex.
• Set the port speed and duplex parameters on both ends of the connection.
Follow these steps to connect to 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, or 1000-BASE-T devices:

Step 1 When connecting to workstations, servers, and routers, connect a straight-through cable to an RJ-45
connector on the front panel. (See Figure 2-10) When connecting to switches or repeaters, use a crossover
cable. (See the “Cables and Adapters” section on page B-4 for cable-pin-out descriptions.)
Step 2 Connect the other end of the cable to an RJ-45 connector on the other device. The port LED turns on when
both devices have established link. (See Figure 2-10.)
Figure 2-10
Scenario 1 - Zero Touch Provisioning
Refer to the ZTP section in the Cisco NID Controller Guide.
Scenario 2 - Accessing Cisco ME1200 NID Through ME3600 UPE NID Controller Mode
Note All Cisco ME1200 NID will have 192.0.2.1 as factory installed default IP address.
Step 1 In UPE NID Controller(ME3600) for interface VLAN 1, assign IP 192.0.2.2
Controller#configure t
Controller(config)#interface vlan 1
Controller(config-if)#ip address 192.0.2.2 255.255.0.0
Step 2 Ping 192.0.2.1
Step 3 Add Cisco ME1200 NID in UPE NID Controller, using ‘platform nid-controller add 192.0.2.1’
Controller#configure t
Controller(config)#platform nid-controller add 192.0.2.1
Controller(config)#end
2-12 OL-31962-04
Step 4 Check if the Cisco ME1200 NID has been added to UPE NID Controller,
Controller#show platform nid-controller nids

NID_ID MAC Address IP Address Lease Physical Port VLAN
TFTP Server Type
1 n/a 192.0.2.1 n/a n/a n/a
n/a static
Note Step 1 to Step 4 are performed so that for the first time, we can access Cisco ME1200 NID through the UPE
NID Controller ME3600 with the default factory IP address Cisco ME1200 NID comes with (192.0.2.1). The
above steps 1 to 4 are mandatory and sufficient to establish the initial connectivity between the UPE NID
Controller and Cisco ME1200 NID.
Below steps are performed in order to configure port as trunk and establish the connectivity on a different
SVI. This also gives the provision to configure default IP route for reachability to various servers.
Note Prerequisite :
1. UPE NID Controller should be configured with a different VLAN other than VLAN 1.
2. Below configs are assuming UPE NID Controller interface 0/1 is connected to Cisco ME1200 NID
1/1, change the interface configs as applicable.
Step 5 Controller#configure t
Controller(config)#interface vlan 2
Controller(config-if)#ip address 7.6.15.60 255.255.0.0
Step 6 The interface on UPE NID Controller which is connected to Cisco ME1200 NID needs to be configured trunk
with the specified vlan allowed.
Controller#conf t
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
Controller(config)#interface gigabitEthernet 0/1
Controller(config-if)#switchport mode trunk
Controller(config-if)#switchport trunk allowed vlan 2
Step 7 Now, from the UPE NID Controller configure the desired management vlan on Cisco ME1200 NID using
‘provisionportvlantype’ template and assign svi for the desired vlan interface.
Controller#conf t
Controller(config)#controller nid 1/1
Controller(config-controller)#provisionportVlanPortType
Controller(config-controller-ProvisionPortVlanPortType)#createintVlan
createIntVlanReq vlan_id 2
createIntVlanReq address ipv4 ipv4_address address 7.6.15.59
createIntVlanReq address ipv4 ipv4_address mask 255.255.0.0
commit
Step 8 Now add route using ‘nidmanagemet’ template.
Controller#conf t
OL-31962-04 2-13
Controller(config-controller)#ProvisionNIDMgmtType
Controller(config-controller-ProvisionNIDMgmtType)#setiproute
setIpRouteReq ??ipv4_address 0.0.0.0
setIpRouteReq ipv4_mask 0.0.0.0
setIpRouteReq gateway_ip 7.6.0.1
Controller(config-controller-ProvisionNIDMgmtType)#setiproute commit
Step 9 Configure the connected Cisco ME1200 NID interface as trunk and allow the specified VLAN.
Controller#conf t
Controller(config-controller)#ProvisionPortVlanPortType
Controller(config-controller-ProvisionPortVlanPortType)# modifySwPort
modifySWPortConfig interface 1
Controller(config-controller-ProvisionPortVlanPortType)#modifySwPort
modifySWPortConfig mode trunk allowed vlan 2
Controller(config-controller-ProvisionPortVlanPortType)#modifySwPort
commit
Step 10 After above steps, using ‘platform nid-controller’ add the NID with the desired IP.
Controller#conf t
Controller(config)#platform nid-controller add 7.6.15.59
Controller(config)#end
Step 11 Check if the Cisco ME1200 NID has been added to UPE NID Controller,
Controller#show platform nid-controller nids

NID_ID MAC Address IP Address Lease Physical Port VLAN
TFTP Server Type
1 n/a 192.0.2.1 n/a n/a n/a
n/a static
2 n/a 7.6.15.59 n/a n/a n/a

Troubleshooting
• Diagnosing Problems, page 4-1

• Switch Performance, page 4-1
• Finding the Switch Serial Number, page 4-2
Diagnosing Problems
The LEDs on the front panel provide troubleshooting information about the switch. They show power-on
self-test (POST) failures, port-connectivity problems, and overall switch performance. You can also get
statistics from the CLI on the UPE NID Controller. See the Cisco NID Controller guide on Cisco.com for
more information.
Switch Performance
Speed, Duplex, and Auto-negotiation

If the port statistics show a large amount of alignment errors, frame check sequence (FCS), or late-collisions
errors, this might mean a speed or duplex mismatch.
A common issue with speed and duplex is when the duplex settings are mismatched between two switches,
between a switch and a router, or between the switch and a workstation or server. Mismatches can happen
when manually setting the speed and duplex or from auto-negotiation issues between the two devices.
To maximize switch performance and to ensure a link, follow one of these guidelines when changing the
duplex or speed settings.
• Let both ports auto-negotiate both speed and duplex.
• Manually set the speed and duplex parameters for the ports on both ends of the connection.
• If a remote device does not auto-negotiate, set the same duplex settings on the two ports. The speed
parameter adjusts itself even if the connected port does not auto-negotiate.
OL-31962-04 4-1
Chapter 4 Troubleshooting
Finding the Switch Serial Number
Auto-negotiation and NICs

Problems sometimes occur between the switch and third-party network interface cards (NICs). By default,
the switch ports and interfaces are set to auto-negotiate. Devices like laptops or other devices are commonly
set to auto-negotiate, yet sometimes auto-negotiation issues occur.
To troubleshoot auto-negotiation problems, try manually setting both sides of the connection. If this does not
solve the problem, there could be a problem with the firmware or software on your NIC. You can resolve this
by upgrading the NIC driver to the latest available version.
Cabling Distance
If the port statistics show excessive FCS, late-collision, or alignment errors, verify that the cable distance
from the switch to the connected device meets the recommended guidelines. See the “Connector and Cable
Specifications” for cabling guidelines.
Finding the Switch Serial Number

If you contact Cisco Technical Assistance, you need to know the serial number of your switch. Use the
following figure to locate the serial number location. You can also use the show inventory user EXEC
command to get the serial number.

The console port uses an 8-pin RJ-45 connector, which is described in Table B-3 and Table B-4. If you did
not order a console cable with your switch, you need to provide an RJ-45-to-DB-9 adapter cable to connect
the console port of the switch to a console PC. You need to provide an RJ-45-to-DB-25 female DTE adapter
if you want to connect the switch console port to a terminal. You can order a kit (part number
ACS-DSBUASYN=) containing that adapter from Cisco. For console port and adapter pin-out information,
see Table B-2 and Table B-3.
