Supervisor Engine II-Plus
This section describes the Catalyst 4500 series Supervisor Engine II-Plus (WS-X4013+). This supervisor engine provides data path and data control for all network interfaces.
The Catalyst 4500 series Supervisor Engine II-Plus is supported by the Catalyst 4006, Catalyst 4503, Catalyst 4506, and Catalyst 4507R switches. Install the Catalyst 4500 series Supervisor Engine II-Plus in slot 1 of all Catalyst 4500 Series switches. You can install two Catalyst 4500 series Supervisor Engine II-Pluses in a Catalyst 4507R switch with the second supervisor engine serving as a redundant supervisor engine. The Catalyst 4500 series Supervisor Engine II-Plus in slot 1 of the Catalyst 4507R switch is the primary supervisor engine. The Catalyst 4500 series Supervisor Engine II-Plus in slot 2 of the Catalyst 4507R switch is the redundant supervisor engine.
The supervisor engine is hot swappable, but packets are not forwarded when the supervisor engine has been removed. When a supervisor engine is reinserted, the system reboots.
Figure 1 Catalyst 4500 Series Supervisor Engine II-Plus (WS-X4013+)
The supervisor engine includes interfaces for SNMP, console, and Telnet, and provides management functions, such as environmental status monitoring.

Gigabit Ethernet Uplink Ports
The Gigabit Ethernet uplink ports operate in full-duplex mode only. These ports use the 1000BASE-SX, 1000BASE-LX/LH, Cisco CWDM (Coarse Wave Division Multiplexing) GBICs, 1000BASE-T GBIC (using an RJ-45 connector), and 1000BASE-ZX Gigabit Interface Converters (GBICs). GBICs have SC connectors to interface with multimode fiber (MMF) and single-mode fiber (SMF) cable. For further information on GBICs, see the "GBIC Handling Guidelines and Installation" section.
Ethernet Management Port
The Ethernet management port can be used (in ROMMON mode only) to recover a switch software image that has been corrupted or destroyed due to a network catastrophe. When using Cisco IOS Release 12.2(50)SG or later, this port can also perform the same functions as the console port. For earlier Cisco IOS software releases, this port is not active while the switch is operating normally.
Console Port
The Catalyst 4500 series Supervisor Engine II-Plus console port has an EIA/TIA-232 RJ-45 connector. The console port allows you to perform the following functions:
•Configure the switch from the CLI
•Monitor network statistics and errors
•Configure SNMP agent parameters
Note EIA/TIA-232 was known as recommended standard RS-232 before its acceptance as a standard by the Electronic Industries Alliance (EIA) and Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA).
Reset Button
The Reset button is used to restart the switch.
Note Use a paper clip or other small, pointed object to press the Reset button.
Flash Port
The Flash port accepts a Type 1 compact Flash card. You can use it for file transfer tasks such as loading a new software image. The Flash card (MEM-C4K-FLD64M= or MEM-C4K-FLD128M=) is optional.
For more information, refer to Using the Compact Flash on the Catalyst 4000 Family Supervisor Engine III and IV at the following URL:

Using a Patch Cord
When using the LX/LH GBIC with 62.5-micron diameter MMF, you must install a mode-conditioning patch cord (Cisco product number CAB-GELX-625 or equivalent) between the GBIC and the MMF cable on both the transmit and receive ends of the link.
The patch cord is required for link distances greater than 984 feet (300 meters) and must comply with IEEE standards. The IEEE found that link distances could not be met with certain types of fiber-optic cable due to a problem in the center of some fiber-optic cable cores. The solution is to launch light from the laser at a precise offset from the center by using the patch cord. At the output of the patch cord, the LX/LH GBIC is compliant with the IEEE 802.3z standard for 1000BASE-LX. For a detailed description of this problem, refer to the installation guide for your switch.
Note We do not recommend using the LX/LH GBIC with MMF without a patch cord for very short link distances (tens of meters). The result could be an elevated bit error rate (BER).
Cisco Gigabit Ethernet products have been tested and evaluated to comply with the standards listed in Appendix A, "Specifications," of the installation guide for your switch. All equivalent cables should also meet these standards.
Installing and Removing the Supervisor Engine
All Catalyst 4500 series switches support hot swapping, which lets you install, remove, replace, and rearrange supervisor engines and switching modules without powering off the system. When the system detects that a switching module has been installed or removed, it runs diagnostic and discovery routines automatically, acknowledges the presence or absence of the module, and resumes system operation with no operator intervention.
This section contains the following subsections:
•Required Tools
•Installing the Supervisor Engine
•Removing the Supervisor Engine
Required Tools
You will need these tools to install a supervisor engine in a Catalyst 4500 series switch:
•Number 1 and number 2 Phillips screwdrivers for the captive installation screws on most modules
•3/16-inch flat-blade screwdriver for the captive installation screws on other modules
•Antistatic mat or antistatic foam
•Wrist strap or other grounding device
Note Whenever you handle supervisor engines, use a wrist strap or other grounding device to prevent ESD damage.
Installing the Supervisor Engine
Catalyst 4500 series switches have horizontal chassis slots that are numbered from top to bottom. On the Catalyst 4006, Catalyst 4503, and Catalyst 4506 switches, you can only install the supervisor engine in slot 1. On the Catalyst 4507R switch, install the primary supervisor engine in slot 1. You can install an optional redundant supervisor engine in slot 2.
|
Warning
|
|
Hazardous voltage or energy is present on the backplane when the system is operating. Use caution when servicing. |
Caution
To prevent ESD damage, handle supervisor engines by the carrier edges only.
To install a supervisor engine in a Catalyst 4500 series switch, follow this procedure:
Step 1 Take the necessary precautions to prevent ESD damage.
Step 2 Ensure that you have enough clearance to accommodate any interface equipment that you will connect directly to the supervisor engine ports.
Step 3 Loosen the captive installation screws that secure the switching-module filler plate or the existing supervisor engine (whichever is present), and remove it.
Step 4 Remove the supervisor engine filler plate or the existing supervisor engine from slot 1. If a switching module filler plate was installed, save it for future use. If you are removing an existing supervisor engine, see the "Removing the Supervisor Engine" section.
Step 5 To install the new supervisor engine, grasp the switching module front panel with one hand and place your other hand under the carrier to support the supervisor engine, as shown in Figure 2. Do not touch the printed circuit boards or connector pins.
Step 6 Align the edges of the supervisor engine carrier with the slot guides on the sides of the switch chassis, as shown in Figure 2.
Figure 2 Installing the Supervisor Engine in the Chassis
Step 7 Pivot the two module ejector levers out and away from the faceplate.
Step 8 Carefully slide the supervisor engine into the slot until the notches on both ejector levers engage the chassis sides.
Step 9 Using the thumb and forefinger of each hand, simultaneously pivot in both ejector levers to fully seat the supervisor engine in the backplane connector.
Caution
Always use the ejector levers when installing or removing a supervisor engine. A supervisor engine that is partially seated in the backplane will not function correctly.
Step 10 Use a screwdriver to tighten the captive installation screws on each end of the supervisor engine faceplate.
To check the status of the module, perform these steps:
Step 1 Ensure that the LED labeled Status is green (module operational).
Step 2 When the switch is online, enter the show module command. Verify that the system acknowledges the new module and that the module status is good.
Step 3 If the module is not operational, reseat it. If the module is still not operational, contact your customer service representative.

Warning
|
|
Hazardous voltage or energy is present on the backplane when the system is operating. Use caution when servicing. |
Caution
To prevent ESD damage, handle supervisor engines by the carrier edges only.
To remove a supervisor engine from a Catalyst 4500 series switch, perform these steps:
Step 1 Disconnect any network interface cables attached to the ports on the supervisor engine that you intend to remove.
Step 2 Loosen the captive installation screws. (See Figure 3.)
Figure 3 Captive Installation Screws and Ejector Levers
Step 3 Grasp the left and right ejector levers, and simultaneously pivot the levers outward to release the supervisor engine from the backplane connector. Figure 3 shows a close-up of the right ejector lever.
Step 4 Grasp the front panel of the supervisor engine with one hand, and place your other hand under the carrier to support and guide it out of the slot. Do not touch the printed circuit boards or connector pins.
Step 5 Carefully pull the supervisor engine straight out of the slot, keeping your other hand under the carrier to guide it.
Step 6 Place the supervisor engine on an antistatic mat or antistatic foam, or immediately install it in another slot.
|
Warning Blank faceplates and cover panels serve three important functions: they prevent exposure to hazardous voltages and currents inside the chassis; they contain electromagnetic interference (EMI) that might disrupt other equipment; and they direct the flow of cooling air through the chassis. Do not operate the system unless all cards, faceplates, front covers, and rear covers are in place.
|
Step 7 If the slot is to remain empty, install a switching-module filler plate (part number 800-00292-01).
Attaching Module Interface Cables
Figure 4 and Figure 5 show the connector types used to attach interface cables to the supervisor engine.

Configuring Your Supervisor Engine
For information and commands to configure your supervisor engine, refer to the Software Configuration Guide for your switch.
GBIC Handling Guidelines and Installation
A GBIC (see Figure 6) is a hot swappable input/output device that plugs into the Gigabit Ethernet port of a supervisor engine and links the supervisor engine with a fiber-optic network. GBICs are online swappable.
Figure 6 Gigabit Interface Converter
The following GBIC media types are supported:
•1000BASE-SX (WS-G5484)
•1000BASE-LX/LH (WS-G5486)
•1000BASE-ZX (WS-G5487)
•1000BASE-T (WS-G5483)
•CWDM (CWDM-GBIC-xxxx)
Caution
Because of interoperability issues, Cisco does not support GBICs purchased from third-party vendors.
Cisco 1000BASE-LX/LH interfaces fully comply with the IEEE 802.3z 1000BASE-LX standard. However, their higher optical quality allows them to reach 10 km over SMF cable instead of the 5 km specified in the standard.
If an LX/LH GBIC designed for operation on an SMF cable is directly coupled to an MMF cable, an effect known as Differential Mode Delay (DMD) might occur. See the Catalyst 4000 Family Module Installation Guide for more information.
This section describes the following topics:
•Installing a GBIC
•Removing a GBIC
•GBIC Maintenance Guidelines
Installing a GBIC
A supervisor engine can be shipped with or without GBICs installed.
Caution
When removing or inserting a GBIC, always wear an ESD wrist strap connected to the ESD wrist strap connector.
Caution
Unnecessary removal or insertion of a GBIC can lead to premature failure of the GBIC. A GBIC has a lifetime of 100 to 500 removals and insertions.
Note This product has been evaluated to and complies with acceptable-safety-emission limits for Class 1 lasers. However, you should still take general precautions when working with lasers.
|
Warning
|
|
Invisible laser radiation may be emitted from disconnected fibers or connectors. Do not stare into beams or view directly with optical instruments. |
To install a GBIC, follow this procedure:
Step 1 Remove the GBIC from its protective packaging.
Step 2 Verify that the GBIC is the correct type for your network by checking the GBIC part number. The part number indicates whether it is 1000BASE-SX, 1000BASE-LX/LH, 1000BASE-T, CWDM, or 1000BASE-ZX.
Step 3 Grasp the sides of the GBIC with your thumb and forefinger; insert the GBIC into the desired slot on the front of the module. (See Figure 7.)
Note GBICs are keyed to prevent incorrect insertion into a slot.
Figure 7 Installing a GBIC
Step 4 Slide the GBIC into the slot until you hear a click. The click indicates that the GBIC is locked into the slot.
Step 5 When you are ready to attach the fiber-optic cable, remove the plug from the GBIC and save it for future use.
Caution
Do not remove the plugs from the GBIC optical bores or the fiber-optic cable until you are ready to connect the cable. The plugs protect the GBIC optical bores and cable from contamination.
Step 6 Remove the plugs from the SC-type connector on the fiber-optic cable (see Figure 5 on page 14). Insert the connector into the GBIC.
Note When you plug the SC-type connector into the GBIC, ensure that you fully insert the Tx and Rx fiber-optic cables into the SC-type connector.
Note If you are using the LX/LH GBIC with MMF, you need to install a patch cord between the GBIC and the MMF cable. See the "Using a Patch Cord" section for details.
Removing a GBIC
|
Warning
|
|
Invisible laser radiation may be emitted from disconnected fibers or connectors. Do not stare into beams or view directly with optical instruments. |
To remove a GBIC, follow this procedure:
Step 1 Disconnect the fiber-optic cable from the GBIC SC-type connector.
Step 2 Release the GBIC from the slot by simultaneously squeezing the plastic tabs (one on each side of the GBIC).
Step 3 Slide the GBIC out of the slot.
Step 4 Install the two plugs into the GBIC optical bores, and place the GBIC in its protective packaging.
GBIC Maintenance Guidelines
To properly maintain GBICs, follow these guidelines:
•GBICs are sensitive to static. To prevent ESD damage, follow normal handling procedures.
•GBICs are sensitive to dust. When the GBIC is stored or when a fiber-optic cable is not plugged in, always keep plugs in the optical bores.
•The most common source of contaminants in the optical bores is debris picked up on the ferrules of the optical connectors. Use an alcohol swab or Kim-Wipe to clean the ferrules of the optical connector.
