Use the following topics to set up the I/O modules supported in TippingPoint
security devices:• Before you begin on page 4-8• ESD requirements on page 4-8• I/O module options on page 4-8• Module LEDs on page 4-13
• I/O module replacement on page 4-14
• Supported transceivers and cables for TippingPoint I/O modules on page 4-15

4-7

TPS Hardware Specification and Installation

Before you begin• Review the release notes for your product for any late-breaking changes
to the installation instructions.
• Read and follow all safety information listed in the TippingPoint Hardware
Safety and Compliance Guide that shipped with your product.
• Complete the installation of your TippingPoint security device.

ESD requirements
Damage from Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can occur when you handle
electronic components improperly. Improper handling can also result incomplete or intermittent system failures. Use proper ESD protection
whenever you handle equipment. Following these general grounding
guidelines:• Always use an ESD wrist strap when you add or remove components
from the chassis.
• Avoid touching the circuit boards or connectors on all cards andmodules.
• Avoid contact between the printed circuit boards and clothing. The wrist
strap only protects components from ESD voltages on the body. ESD
voltages on clothing can still cause damage.
Place a removed component board-side-up on an antistatic surface or in astatic-shielding container that is also grounded to the same point as thedevice. If you plan to return the component to the factory, immediately place
it in a static-shielding container.

I/O module options
TippingPoint devices with module slots support both standard I/O modules
and bypass I/O modules. Refer to the following table for fiber and copper
components.
Only transceiver modules available from Trend Micro have been validated toachieve optimal performance with TippingPoint products. Other vendor

4-8

TPS 8200TX and 8400TX devices overview

devices are not supported. Using other vendor devices could be detrimental
to proper operation of the TippingPoint system.
Bypass I/O modules are zero-power high-availability (ZPHA) modules that
permit network traffic and services while bypassing the device entirely when
the device loses power.
Note
For TX Series devices, consider the following I/O module restrictions:• Fiber modules do not support auto-negotiation.
• If you use a 1000-BaseT copper SFP in the 6-Segment GbE SFP module,
auto-negotiation will be available at 1 Gbps.
• 10 GbE SFP+ modules support both SFP and SFP+ transceivers. If you plug
SFP transceivers into SFP+ ports, only 1 Gbps speed will be available.
Both 1 Gbps and 10 Gbps speeds can be configured with a multispeed SFP+ transceiver.

I/O module replacement
On a TPS TX Series device, hot swapping allows you to add, remove, or
replace an I/O module without shutting down the device. When the device isturned on, you can hot swap an I/O module without interruption to the TPS
device.
When you hot swap an I/O module, keep the following points in mind:• Hot-swapping I/O modules during system initialization is not supported.
• The module port configuration is always reset.
• The module segment configuration, including link-down
synchronization, Intrinsic HA, and inspection bypass, is always
preserved. If you swap the module with a different type of module, besure to verify that your segment configuration settings have persisted.
When the device is turned off, cold swapping allows you to add, remove, or
replace an I/O module as you would when you hot swap. However, when you
cold swap an I/O module, if the replacement module type is the same, themodule port configuration is preserved.
When the device is managed by the SMS, a delay of up to 1 minute can occur
before the SMS recognizes the changed I/O module.

4-14

TPS 8200TX and 8400TX devices overview

When you insert a bypass I/O module, the bypass I/O module always starts
up in bypass mode. A bypass I/O module remains in bypass mode until you
remove it from bypass mode through the CLI, LSM, or SMS. For information
about how to use normal mode instead of bypass mode, refer to the SMS,
LSM, or CLI documentation.

Install the chassis
Before installing your new security device, gather any necessary materials
and prepare the network and hardware site. To carefully and correctly installthe device, read through all preparation instructions and requirements. Use
this general guideline information and the Read Me First that shipped withyour product for all TippingPoint devices.
To install the device you must complete the following procedures:• Determine total rack space on page 7-3• Attach the device to the rack on page 7-3• Connect the power supply on page 7-4

Determine total rack space
Before you install the chassis, determine the total rack space required to
install your system. The total required rack space increases if you plan toinstall multiple systems.
The device fits in a 19-inch-wide rack (or a 23-inch-wide rack, withappropriate conversion parts available from rack accessory vendors). For
more information about the dimensions of the device, refer to the technicalspecifications and requirements for your model.

Attach the device to the rack
Unpack the accessory kit and the slide rail assembly kit that shipped withyour security device.
If the rack comes with stabilizers, install the stabilizers before mounting orservicing the unit in the rack.
If the rack is partially filled, load the rack from the bottom to the top with theheaviest component at the bottom. During initial installation, make sure toevenly distribute the weight so that the rack is stable.

TPS Hardware Specification and Installation

Important
Always use a four-post mount for four-post racks. You can optionally orderfront mounting ears from Trend to install the devices in two-post racks infront-mount or mid-mount positions. For more information, contact yourTippingPoint representative.

If you plan to expand your system to include additional TippingPoint systems
in the future, allow space in the rack for additions. During the initialinstallation, keep in mind the weight distribution and stability of the rack.

Connect the power supply
After you have bolted the device to the rack, attach the power supply AC
connections. Do not turn on the device until you have completed all of theremaining installation steps.
TXE devices require two AC power supplies for operation. For maximum
protection, use different power circuit feeds for each power cord.
The TPS 2200T, 5500TX, 8200TX, and 8400TX security devices require the useof one power cord to turn on the device. Use a second power cord for
redundancy. For maximum protection, use different power circuit feeds foreach power cord.
The TPS 440T and 1100TX devices provide a single power supply.
When you install DC power, always install the safety ground cable before
