Catalyst Matrix Module Installation
A Catalyst Matrix module can be installed in either the left side, right side, or in both positions of the
Catalyst Matrix chassis. If a module fails, it can be replaced easily. The only tool needed is a #2 bit
Phillips screwdriver. The following procedure describes how to add or replace a Catalyst Matrix
module.
Note The Catalyst Matrix modules are hot-swappable. A module can be swapped with power
applied and when it is on-line to the system. However, if possible, try to avoid swapping an on-line
module during heavy traffic. The switching time from an on-line module to an off-line module is
short; however, during extremely heavy traffic it could cause an interruption of data. When it is
necessary to remove an on-line module, if possible, switch it off line when there is little or no traffic.
Disconnect power from the module before removing it from the chassis.

2Catalyst Matrix and Expansion Module Installation and Configuration Guide
Catalyst Matrix Module Installation
Use the following steps for installing or replacing a Catalyst Matrix module. If you are installing a
module into an open slot, proceed to Step 5.
Step 1 If there is a blank cover over the expansion module slot, remove it by unscrewing the two
attachment screws.
Step 2 Disconnect power from the module. (See previous note pertaining to power to the module.)
Step 3 Remove the screw located at the top center of the front of the module.
Step 4 Use the handle on the front of the module to pull the module straight out from the chassis.
Note The module may be firmly seated in the chassis; if so, you may need to exert reasonable force
to disengage the module.
Step 5 Insert the module into the open slot. In Figure 1, the secondary module is being inserted
into the unit. Place the bottom of the module against the bottom of the slot and slide the
module into the slot. You should feel some resistance as the module connector mates with
the Matrix connector. If you feel solid resistance, pull the module back a little and try again
while moving the module slightly to the left or right until you feel the two connectors
engage. After the connectors start to engage, you should be able to insert the module
approximately one-half inch further or until you feel hard resistance. The connectors
should be seated at that point. If the module fails to work properly, remove it and try this
step again.
Step 6 Install the screw at the top center of the module’s front plate.
Step 7 Connect the power cord to the module.
Step 8 Bring the module on line by pressing the ACTIVATE push-button.

Installing the Catalyst Switch Rear Stack Port Expansion Module
Installing the Catalyst Switch Rear Stack Port Expansion Module
ThefollowingsectionexplainstheinstallationanduseoftheCatalystStackPortconnectionmodule,
which enables two or more Catalyst switches to work together as a Stack.
Catalyst Stack Port
The Catalyst Stack Port is a single-port expansion module with a special 50-pin connector. (For a
detailed description of the Catalyst Stack refer to the Catalyst Stack Installation and Configuration
Guide for your particular model.) With the Catalyst Stack Port, two types of Stacks can be created:
•Two Catalyst switches, each equipped with a Catalyst Stack Port module, can be combined into
a back-to-back Stack by connecting each module together using a single Stack Port cable. For
cablingtheStack Port module, see the following section, “Catalyst Stack Port Expansion Module
Cables.”
•More than two Catalyst switches, each equipped with a Catalyst Stack Port module, can be
combined into a Stack by connecting each module to a Catalyst Matrix unit. The Catalyst Matrix
supports a Stack of up to eight Catalyst switches.
Inserting the Catalyst Stack Port
The module can be inserted in its expansion slot as shown in Figure 2.
Figure 2 Inserting a Catalyst Stack Port Expansion Module
Caution Catalyst Stack Port modules are not hot-swappable. Always be sure that the power is off
before installing or removing a Catalyst Stack Port module. If the power is on, damage to the
equipment may result.
Caution Do not touch the components or connectors on the Catalyst Stack Port module. Do not
touch the connector pins on a cable when the other end is plugged into a component. Damage may
result from static discharge.
Caution During installation, the connector on the Catalyst Stack Port module must line up evenly
with the connector inside the expansion slot. Misalignment may cause the connector pins to bend.
When inserting the Catalyst Stack Port module into the expansion slot, be sure that the board is level
and that the left and right sides slide evenly into the slot.

Catalyst Matrix and Expansion Module Installation and Configuration Guide 7
Installing Catalyst Switch Front Expansion Modules
100BaseTX Expansion Module Cables
The 100BaseTX module’s network port is an RJ-45 connector that uses 100BaseTX cable.
Note 100BaseTX and 10BaseT cable have the same connectors and cable pinouts, but using one in
place of the other may cause system performance problems. 10BaseT is a Category 3 cable, and
100BaseTX is a Category 5 cable (physically, Category 5 cable is usually a little heavier or stiffer
than category 3 cable). Check to see if the cable type is printed on the cable jacket.
The 100BaseTX module’s network port is an RJ-45, 100BaseTX type that is always in MDI-X
mode. Cabling the 100BaseTX to different types of equipment that have MDI or MDI-X ports
requires different types of 100BaseTX cable. The cable types are described below.
•Straight-through cable: If the 100BaseTX is cabled to a port that is MDI, such as a server, use a
straight-through connecting cable.
•Crossover cable: If the 100BaseTX is cabled to a port that is also MDI-X, such as a high-speed
hub, use a crossover cable.
As a reference for 100BaseTX cable, use the 10BaseT cable information in “Appendix A” in the
Catalyst Stack Installation and Configuration Guide.
Connecting Cables to 100 BaseTX Expansion Module Ports
Connect cables to the RJ-45 port on the front of the 100BaseTX module as follows:
Step 1 Determine if the unit is operating in half-duplex or full-duplex mode. If the Catalyst switch
is an enhanced version, see the section “Configuring Full-Duplex Communications” in the
Catalyst Stack Installation and Configuration Guide for a detailed explanation on how to
determine whether the communication mode is half- or full-duplex. The Catalyst switch
and the 100BaseTX operate in half-duplex mode only for unenhanced Catalyst switch
units. Set the DUPLEX switch on the front of the module to the appropriate position: down
for half-duplex, or up for full-duplex. Set to half-duplex only for unenhanced Catalyst
switch units.
Step 2 Determine that you have the correct cable. Refer to “Appendix A” in the Catalyst Stack
Installation and Configuration Guide for a description of 100BaseTX cables.
Step 3 Connect a 100BaseTX cable from a hub or end-node device to the RJ-45 jack on the front
of the expansion module.
Step 4 Insert the cable’s 8-pin (RJ-45) plug into the jack until it clicks into place (see Figure 5).

Checking the Installation
When the connection is established, the LNK/FDX LED is on: green in half-duplex mode, or yellow
in full-duplex mode. If the LED is not on, there may be a cable problem. Verify that you are using
the correct type of cable, then check if the cable is bad by trying a different one.
If, after installation, there is poor system performance or the 100BaseTX module does not work at
all, remove the module and check for any damage or bent connector pins. You may need a bright
light to see inside the expansion module slot to check for bent pins. Also, verify that the module is
set firmly in place. If you cannot find an immediate cause for the problem, refer to the chapter that
discusses troubleshooting in the Catalyst Stack Installation and Configuration Guide.

Inserting the 100VG Module
Expansion modules are installed in the expansion slots on the front of the Catalyst switch. All front
expansion modules are installed in a similar way. Use the previous section “Installing The
WS-X3001 (100Base TX) Expansion Module” as an example for detailed installation instructions
and precautions for the 100VG module.
Verifying the Installation
Connect the Catalyst switch to a power source and it will begin its power-on self-test diagnostics.
The following lists the LED pattern that occurs during the diagnostics.
•At Power On, all LEDs turn on.
•The self-test diagnostics for the Catalyst switch and 100VG Module requires approximately 5
minutes. The Catalyst switch DIAG LED and all 100VG Module LEDs are on during this test.
•After diagnostics, All LEDs on the module are off.
When the self-tests of the Catalyst switch and the 100VG Module complete successfully, the
Catalyst switch and its module(s) are now operational. Connect the appropriate cable to your
transceiver.
See the transceiver section for the cable specifications and instructions.
If the diagnostics fail or if the FAULT LED is on or blinking, refer to the Troubleshooting section at
the end of this document.
