USER MANUAL PowerConnect W620 DELL

About the W-620 Controller 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. z W-620 Series Controllerz AC Power Cord (country-specific)z Flat Serial Cable (RJ-45)z Rubber Feet (for table top deployments)z Serial Console Port Adaptor (RJ-45 to DB9)

Dell PowerConnect ArubaOS Quick Start Guide z End User License Agreement (EULA) z Safety, Environmental, and Regulatory Information (SERI) document z Warranty and Support Information (WSI) document 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. Note: Inform your supplier if there are any incorrect, missing, or damaged parts. If possible, retain the carton, including the original packing materials. Use these materials to repack and return the unit to the supplier if needed.8 | About the W-620 Controller Dell PowerConnect W-620 Controller | Installation Guide 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. ExpressCard Slot Port LEDsDell PowerConnect W-620 Controller | Installation Guide About the W-620 Controller | 9 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 page15 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.

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. 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/HSPDA 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.

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.
