OIR LED Descriptions
There is a consistent CLI-based Online Insertion and Removal (OIR) notification scheme for all slots
that support “Nonsurprise” OIR. Table 2 describes the OIR LED indicator for these slots. There is no
special LED indication for module insertion. The PSU and Fan Tray supports surprise OIR and does not
have a special CLI or LED indication.
POWER Green The POWER LED is green when the module is receiving power
and is off when power is removed.

CONSOLE Ports
There are two types of CONSOLE ports, the RJ-45 console port and the USB console port. See Figure 2
for the location of the CONSOLE ports.
Note On the front panel of the WiSM2, both ports have one CONSOLE label.
The WiSM2 offers both an RJ-45 serial console interface and a USB console interface. Only one of the
console ports can be active at a time; the USB console takes priority over the RJ-45 console by default.
When a USB Host (PC) is plugged into the USB console port, the hardware automatically switches over
to use the USB console. When the USB cable is removed or the PC deactivates the USB connection, the
hardware automatically switches to the RJ-45 console interface.
Note Only a PC that has the necessary USB console device driver causes the USB console to become active.
Plugging in a PC that does not have the USB console driver support does not cause a switchover.
When using the USB console port for operation with Microsoft Windows, you must install the Cisco
Windows USB Console Driver on any PC that is connected to the console port. If it is not installed,
prompts guide you through a simple installation process. To download the latest Cisco Windows USB
Console Driver, follow these steps:
Step 1 Go to the Software download page at
http://www.cisco.com/cisco/software/navigator.html
Step 2 Click Wireless.
Step 3 Click Wireless LAN Controllers.
Step 4 Click Integrated Controllers and Controller Modules.
Step 5 Click Cisco Wireless Services Module 2 (WiSM2).
Step 6 Click USB Console Software and follow the download instructions.

Note The USB console driver also works on Linux and MacOS Hosts. See the notes listed inside the
Cisco Windows USB Console driver package for installation details.
There is an LED adjacent to the USB CONSOLE connector and an LED next to the RJ-45 CONSOLE
connector. One of these two LEDs will light to indicate the active console. For LED information see the
“Status LEDs” section on page 3. Both ports are described in this section.
Figure 2 USB CONSOLE Port and RJ-45 CONSOLE Port
RJ-45 CONSOLE Port
The RJ-45 CONSOLE port is used for the initial configuration of the WiSM2. The port is a single RS232
port used for customer console port access and is connected to the control plane UART serial interface.
The console port pinouts on the RJ-45 connector, is shown in Table 3. At initial power-up, the software
should set the default baud rate to 9600.

Note The initial WiSM2 configuration must be made through a direct connection to the RJ-45 CONSOLE
port. After the initial configurations, you can make an Secure Shell (SSH) or Telnet connection to the
module to further configure the module.
USB Console Port
The USB Console port is a Type B interface that allows an interface to the console from a PC using a
Type A to Type B cable. The connector is a mini Type B. The Type B connector supports a USB interface
and outputs a standard serial (RS232) stream between the RJ-45 console stream and the USB Console
stream. Only one USB Console port is active at a time, either the RJ-45 or USB. The controller detects
if a connection is made to the USB-Console and deactivates the RJ-45 console. The pinouts of the mini
Type B is shown in Table 4.
Table 4 USB CONSOLE Type B Port Pinouts
Note In this document, the term “Mini Type B” is used to indicate only a 5-Pin Mini Type B connector and
cable. There is a 4 Pin Mini Type B connector (and cable) as well, but the two are not compatible.
USB Ports
There are two Type-A external USB ports. Each port is fully complaint per the USB 2.0 specification,
and support low (1 Mb/s), full (12 Mb/s), and high speed (480 Mb/s) operation. As per the USB 2.0
specification, these ports are backwards compatible with USB1.1 devices.
The dual-port USB receptacle is shielded and the shield is tied to chassis ground. The Type-A receptacle
can only accept Type-A plugs. Mini-A and Mini-AB plugs are not supported. The Type A connector
pinouts are shown in Table 5.

Power Requirements
The WiSM2 requires 225 W for operation. Make sure that your chassis can provide this power.
Note All Catalyst 6500 chassis (except the Catalyst 6503) require the fan tray 2 module, which requires the
2500 W power supply for proper operation. For planning purposes, be aware that the 2500 W power
supply requires a 20 A input power circuit with a NEMA plug.
You can use the show power command to view power details for your installation, including the system
power available and power statistics for installed power supplies and cards.
System Requirements
Before you install the WiSM2 into the Catalyst 6500 series switch, see the Release Notes for Catalyst
6500 Series Wireless LAN Services Module Software Release to make sure that the switch meets the
hardware and software requirements.

Warning Hazardous voltage or energy is present on the backplane when the system is operating. Use caution
when servicing. Statement 1034
Warning Blank faceplates and cover panels serve three important functions: they prevent exposure to
hazardous voltages and currents inside the chassis; they contain electromagnetic interference (EMI)
that might disrupt other equipment; and they direct the flow of cooling air through the chassis. Do not
operate the system unless all cards, faceplates, front covers, and rear covers are in place.

Installing the WiSM2
Note Before installing the WiSM2, you must install the Catalyst 6500 series switch chassis and at least one
supervisor engine. For information on installing the switch chassis, see the Catalyst 6500 Series Switch
Installation Guide.
This section describes how to install the WiSM2 into the Catalyst 6500 series switch.
Note All modules, including the supervisor engine (if you have redundant supervisor engines), support hot
swapping. You can add, replace, or remove modules without interrupting the system power or causing
other software or interfaces to shut down. For more information about hot-swapping modules, see the
Catalyst 6500 Series Switch Module Installation Guide.
Warning During this procedure, wear grounding wrist straps to avoid ESD damage to the card. Do not directly
touch the backplane with your hand or any metal tool, or you could shock yourself. Statement 94
To install the WiSM2 into the Catalyst 6500 series switch, follow these steps:
Step 1 Make sure that you take the necessary precautions to prevent ESD damage.
Step 2 Choose a slot for the WiSM2. See Figure 3 for the slot numbers on a Catalyst 6500 series switch.
