Cisco Cisco Catalyst 4500-X Switch Module WS-X45-SUP8L-E= Supervisor 8L-E, Spare WS-X45-SUP8L-E= Overview Cisco leadership in borderless networks is extended with important features: Cisco TrustSec, Cisco MultiGig, Flexible NetFlow, Cisco EnergyWise, Cisco UPoE, and many other feature enhancements offered by the Cisco Catalyst 4500E Supervisor Engine 8L-E. Backward and forward compatibility with most existing Cisco Catalyst 4500E line cards and power supplies helps assure deeper customer satisfaction with an industry-leading investment protection architecture. The Cisco Catalyst Supervisor Engine 8L-E is supported in Cisco Catalyst 4500 E-Series chassis. WS-X45-SUP8L-E= Specification WS-X45-SUP8L-E= Specification Feature STATUS LED The status LED indicates the current health of the supervisor engine and the current software state. RESET switch (recessed) The RESET switch is used to reset and restart the switch. UID LED and switch combination A combination push button switch and LED indicator. The blue LED can be turned on either by pressing the UID switch on the front panel or through software. The main purpose of the beacon LED is to enable identification from a remote location during configuration or troubleshooting. The ability to turn on/off the LED by pressing a switch allows you to walk to the other side of a fully populated rack and identify the switch. Pressing the blue beacon LED switch toggles the beacon LED on and off. USB ports USB ports are supported. CONSOLE port (RJ-45 connector) This is a 10/100/1000 port that uses an RJ-45 connector. The console port allows you to access the switch either locally (with a console terminal) or through a modem (remote). The port has an 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 10/100/1000 MGT port (RJ-45 connector) The Ethernet management port is a Layer 3 host port to which you can connect a PC. You can use the Ethernet management port instead of the switch console port for network management. When managing a switch, connect the PC to the Ethernet management port on a Catalyst 4500 E-series switch. LINK LED (Management port) The 10/100/1000 MGT port has a link LED associated with it. SECURE DIGITAL slot A standard Secure Data (SD) memory card interface is provided on the front panel. SD LED The SD LED indicates the current status of the SD memory card slot. ACTIVE SUP LED The active supervisor engine LED indicates whether the supervisor engine is active or in standby mode in redundant supervisor engine configurations. UTILIZATION LEDs Eight LEDs indicate (as an approximate percentage) the current traffic load over the backplane. 1G/10G UPLINKS (SFP/SFP+) ports . The Supervisor Engine 8L-E has four 1-G or 10-G ports that use either small form-factor pluggable (SFP) transceivers or SFP+ transceivers. Uplink port LEDs The uplink port LEDs display the status and activity of the uplink ports. Supervisor Engine 8L-E Front Panel LEDsColor and Meaning STATUS Indicates the status of the Supervisor Engine: GreenAll diagniostic tests have passed. OrangeSystem boot or a diagnostic test is in progress. RedA diagnostic test failed. OffThe supervisor engine is disabled or is not powered up. LINK Indicates the status of the 10/100/1000 BASE-T Ethernet management port: GreenThe link is operational. OffNo signal is detected, or there is a link configuration failure, or the link is disabled by user. SD Indicates the status of the secure digital port: GreenSD card is inserted. OffSD card has been removed, or the SD card is bad. ACTIVE SUP Indicates whether the Supervisor Engine is active or in standby mode: GreenSupervisor engine is active (in redundant supervisor engine configurations) OffSupervisor engine is in standby mode (in redundant supervisor engine configurations) UTILIZATION When the switch is operational, the eight utilization LEDs indicate the current traffic load over the backplane as an approximate percentage value. Each LED-lit green indicates approximately 12.5 percent of load. Uplink port status Indicates the status of the uplink port: GreenThe link is operational. OrangeThe link is disabled by user. Flashing orangeThe power-on self-test indicates a faulty port. OffNo signal is detected or there is a link configuration failure. Uplink port active Two LEDs on the front panel show the uplink port activity: 1-2 ACTIVE indicates that ports 1 and 2 are active 3-4 ACTIVE indicates that ports 3 and 4 are active In standalone supervisor engine configurations, all four uplink ports are active, all of the ACTIVE LEDs are lit green. In redundant supervisor engine configurations, only the 1-2 ACTIVE LED is lit green. The Supervisor Engine 8L-E offers important innovations, including: 560 Gbps total capacity with 4x SFP/SFP+ uplinks and a Quad Core, 1.8Ghz CPU Cisco Universal Power over Ethernet (UPOE) for unprecedented convergence to IP network infrastructure Campus ready for connectivity to next-generation NBASE-T compatible endpoints such as 802.11ac Wave2 multigigabit access points, multigigabit switches, network interface cards (NICs), and adapters Application visibility through Flexible NetFlow. Virtual Switching System (VSS) for operational simplicity and resiliency Cisco IOS XE Software, which provides the ability to host third-party applications Energy efficiency with support for 802.3az Energy-Efficient Ethernet (EEE)-capable line cards Industry-leading resiliency through In-Service Software Upgrade (ISSU) First and only modular switch with 8 bidirectional line-rate Switched Port Analyzer/Remote SPAN (SPAN/RSPAN) sessions Business
