Frequently Asked Questions - PowerConnect W620 DELL

How do I reset the PowerConnect W620 controller to factory defaults?

Factory reset is typically done via the command line interface (CLI) or by holding the USB eject button for more than 5 seconds to enter standby, then rebooting. Refer to the ArubaOS guide for the exact procedure.

What version of ArubaOS is required for the W620?

The W620 controller requires ArubaOS 5.0.2 or later. Ensure all controllers on the network are running the same version.

How do I configure the controller's IP address for the first time?

Connect to the serial console port (RJ-45) with a terminal set to 9600 baud, 8 bits, no parity, 1 stop bit. Access the CLI prompt and use the command configure terminal then interface vlan 1 to set the IP address. Refer to the Dell PowerConnect ArubaOS Quick Start Guide.

Which ports provide PoE power?

Ethernet ports 0 to 3 support PoE (Power over Ethernet) with a maximum power of 19.5 W per port. Ports 4 to 7 do not provide PoE.

Can I connect an access point to the serial console port?

No, the serial console port is reserved for RS-232 devices. Never connect an access point or any non-RS-232 device to this port, as it could damage the hardware.

How do I use the USB eject button?

The USB eject button allows safely dismounting a connected NAS drive (press for 1 to 5 seconds) or putting the controller into standby (press for more than 5 seconds). The status LED changes color accordingly.

What should I do if the status LED is solid red?

A solid red status LED indicates the device has experienced a failure or is in standby mode. If the device is powered on and the LED remains red, check power connections and consult logs via the console or web interface.

How do I install the controller on a table?

Attach the four provided rubber feet under the unit, then place the controller on a flat, hard surface. Ensure adequate ventilation.

What cables are included with the PowerConnect W620?

The package includes a power cord (country-specific), a flat RJ-45 serial cable, and an RJ-45 to DB9 adapter for the console port. Ethernet cables are not included.

Does the controller support rack mounting?

Yes, the PowerConnect W620 can be rack-mounted. Its dimensions (1U) are suitable. Refer to Chapter 2 of the installation guide for the rack mounting procedure.

The Dell PowerConnect W-620 Series Controller is an enterprise-class, wireless LAN controller. This controller connects, controls, and integrates wireless Access Points (APs) and Air Monitors (AMs) into a wired LAN system. The W-620 Series is capable of supporting up to 8 external, campus connected APs.

Minimum Software Requirements

The W-620 Series Controller requires ArubaOS 5.0.2 or later.

Note: The master controller, its redundant master controller, and all of its local controllers must run on the same code of ArubaOS. Once you upgrade your network and install an W-620 Series Controller into your network, verify that the software version on your controller matches the rest of your network.

Hardware Model Overview

Front View

Figure 1 W-620 Series Front View

ExpressCard Slot

The W-620 Series is equipped with one ExpressCard slot, which can be used with an EVDO device.

Port LEDs

In non-rack deployments, the W-620 Series is placed with the front facing out. This allows the cables to be hidden and create a more aesthetically pleasing look. Therefore, a set of LEDs displaying link activity on the ports is placed on this side. For information about the behavior of these LEDs, see Table 3.

Rear View

Figure 2 W-620 Series Series Rear View

AC Power Socket

The W-620 Series supports integrated AC powering and the AC power socket on the rear of the unit is for use with an AC power cord (country-specific). Refer to Appendix A, “Specifications, Safety, & Compliance” on page 15 for power specification details.

10/100BaseT Ethernet Ports

There are eight 10/100BaseT Ethernet ports on the W-620 Series. Ports 0 through 3 support Power over Ethernet (PoE). Ports 4 through 7 do not support PoE and do not have a PoE LED. Instead, they have an LED labeled 100, which indicates interface speed. For information about LED behavior, see Table 3.

10/100/1000Base-T Gigabit Ethernet Port

There is one 10/100/1000Base-T Gigabit Ethernet (RJ-45) port on the W-620 Series. Gigabit Ethernet uses all eight wires and each pair is used in a bi-directional fashion, meaning the same pairs are used for both data transmission and reception. Figure 3 illustrates the CAT-5 pin-out found on an RJ-45 connector. The CAT-5 pin-out pairs the following pins on a 10/100/1000Base-T Gigabit Ethernet port: 1/2, 3/6, 4/5, and 7/8.

Figure 3 Gigabit Ethernet Port Pin-Out

Serial Console Port

A serial console port (see Figure 4) is provided for connection to a terminal, allowing for direct local management. The port's RJ-45 female connector accepts an RS-232 serial cable with a male connector.

Figure 4 Serial Console Port Pin-Out

Communication settings for the serial port are indicated in Table 1.

Table 1 Console Terminal Settings

Baud Rate	Data Bits	Parity	Stop Bits	Flow Control
9600 8 None	1 None

Caution: Do not connect an AP to the serial console port. The serial console port is compatible only with RS-232 devices. Non-RS-232 devices, such as APs, are not supported.

Serial Console Port Adaptor

A modular adaptor can be used to convert the RJ-45 (female) connector to a DB9 (male) connector. Refer to Figure 5 for complete details.

Figure 5 RJ-45 (female) to DB9 (male) Modular Adaptor Conversion

USB Ports

The W-620 Series has one USB 2.0 interface. This interface allows the use of EVDO/HISPDA modem, flash or disk storage devices, or a printer. For more information about configuring and using USB devices with the W-620 Series, see the ArubaOS User Guide.

Media Eject Button

The W-620 Serics is equipped with a media eject button, which allows users to eject a storage device safely and place the system in standby. When the button is pushed, the storage media device attached to the controller via USB are unmounted. Printers and EVDO devices are unaffected.

Pushing the media eject button changes the state of the W-620 Series; the table below describes the states and LED behaviors associated with use of the media eject button.

Table 2 Media Eject Button LED Behavior

Initial State	LED State	Action	Status LED	Function	LED Action Completed
