Minimum Software Requirements The W-3000 Series Controllers require ArubaOS 5.0.2 or later. Package Checklist z W-3000 Series Controllers z AC Power Cord (country-specific) z Rack Mount Brackets with Hardware (for rack mounting) 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: Feature related AP licenses are counted independently and in addition to the AP upgrade licenses. Contact your Dell representative for complete details regarding software licensing options and support capacity. Note: The master controller, its redundant master controller, and all of its local controllers must run on the same ArubaOS version. Once you upgrade your network and install the W-3000 Series Controllers into your network, verify that the software version on your controller matches the rest of the network. If the version shipped on the controller is prior to the version that you upgraded your network to, you must upgrade the code on the controller to match the rest of the network.8 | About the PowerConnect W-3000 Series Controllers Dell PowerConnect W-3000 Series Controller | Installation Guide Model Overview The physical hardware model overview of the W-3000 Series Controllers covers all three models within the series. The difference between the three controller models is dependent on the licensing level purchased. The controller model depicted in the illustrations throughout this chapter is the W-3200. Figure 1 W-3200 Front View 1000Base-X (SFP) Ports There are four 1000Base-X combination ports for fiber connectivity only and are intended for use with Dell SFPs (mini-GBICs). To purchase compatible SFP modules, contact your Dell representative for details and assistance. 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. Note: Optional accessories, such as SFP modules, are available for use with the W-3000 Series Controllers and are sold separately. Contact your Dell representative for details and assistance. Serial Console Port 10/100/1000-Base-T Gigabit Ethernet Port 1000Base- X (SFP) Ports Dual-media ports (4x); 1000Base-X or 10/100/1000Base-T Note: Ports zero through three are dual-media ports and can utilize either the 1000Base-X or 10/100/1000Base-T connections provided. However, the 1000Base-X fiber connection has priority over the 10/100/1000Base-T copper connection. If a link is detected for the 1000Base-X interface, the 10/100/1000Base-T connection will be disabled. Note: Dell tests and supports Dell optics within their controller systems. Third party optics are not tested or supported; therefore, Dell does not guarantee proper functionality of third party optics.Dell PowerConnect W-3000 Series Controller | Installation Guide About the PowerConnect W-3000 Series Controllers | 9 10/100/1000Base-T Gigabit Ethernet Ports There are four 10/100/1000Base-T Gigabit Ethernet (RJ-45) ports. 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 2 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 2 Gigabit Ethernet Port Pin-Out Serial Console Port A serial console port 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 3 Serial Console Port Pin-Out Communication settings for the serial console 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 4 for complete details.
