Front Components on the GigaVUE-HC3 Chassis
Module Bays There are four module bays. They are numbered from 1 to 4, starting with top
left, then bottom left; top right, then bottom right. (Refer to Introducing the
GigaVUE-HC3 Chassis.) The numbering of the module bays also determines the
priority of the modules for power management. For information about power
management, refer to Power Management.
Modules Introducing the GigaVUE-HC3 Chassis shows three different GigaVUE-HC3
modules. Refer to GigaVUE-HC3 Modules for descriptions of the modules.
Cable Management The GigaVUE-HC3 provides optional cable management. Use it to securely
route cables from ports to the left and right side of the node. Refer to Installing
Cable Management Left and Right for more information.
Extension Board There is an extension board installed at the front of the node. The extension

board provides a USB port, console port, a management port, a PTP port, two
stack ports, a P/S port and a PPS (IN) port, as well as status LEDs.
Refer to GigaVUE-HC3 Extension Board for more information.
Rear Components on the GigaVUE-HC3 Chassis
Power Supply Modules The GigaVUE-HC3 has load sharing power supply modules (PSMs). The node
ships with two PSMs, but can be upgraded to four, thus offering 1+1 or 2+2
power redundancy. Both AC and DC power supply modules are available.
Refer to Power Requirements for information on power characteristics of the
GigaVUE-HC3.
Fan Tray The fan tray is installed at the rear of the node provide system cooling. The fan
tray contains five fan modules with two fans per module. Each fan module can
be removed separately from the fan tray.
Refer to Fan Tray Procedures for more information.
Control Card The GigaVUE-HC3 includes a control card installed inside the node, accessible
from the rear of the chassis, behind the fan tray.
The control card provides switching and processing resources for the entire
chassis. It also controls the Mgmt port and console port on the front of the
node for network and local administrative access to the GigaVUE-OS
command-line interface (CLI). The Mgmt port and console port are on the
extension board.
Starting in software version 5.4, Control Card version 2 (CCv2) is available.
Refer to GigaVUE-HC3 Control Cards for more information.

GigaVUE-HC3 Control Cards
The GigaVUE-HC3 includes a control card installed inside the node, accessible from the rear
of the chassis, behind the removable fan tray. The control card provides switching and
processing resources for the entire chassis.
The control card connects up to four modules. It is also referred to as the main board.
The control card controls the Mgmt port and console port of the node for network and local
administrative access to the GigaVUE-OS command-line interface (CLI). The ports are
located on the extension board installed in the front of the chassis. For more information,
refer to GigaVUE-HC3 Extension Board.
There are two versions of control card. Refer to Control Card Version1 (CCv1) and Control
Card Version2 (CCv2).

GigaVUE-HC3 Extension Board
The GigaVUE-HC3 extension board is installed in the front of the chassis, providing the
Mgmt and console ports for network and administrative access. It is an extension of the
main board or control card.
The extension board also provides status LEDs and other ports, such as stack ports for
cluster management. For further details about the extension board, refer to Figure
3GigaVUE-HC3 Extension Board. The status LEDs on the extension board are described in
Table 2: Extension Board Ports and LEDs.

Dual BIOS Images
The GigaVUE-HC3 has a dual Basic Input/Output System (BIOS). The BIOS image is
packaged with the software image, starting in software version 5.0. The BIOS contents are
stored in flash memory, allowing the BIOS to be upgraded. There are two flash components,
a primary and a secondary.
The following CLI command displays the two flash components and indicates the BIOS
image from which the system booted using asterisks:
(config) show version
...
1st flash version: coreboot-genesis-1.0.4 Wed May 17 03:02:21 UTC 2017 **
2nd flash version: coreboot-genesis-1.0.4 Wed May 17 03:02:21 UTC 2017
SW BIOS version: coreboot-genesis-1.0.3 Thu Oct 6 08:15:33 UTC 2016
...
If there is a component failure in the primary flash, the GigaVUE-HC3 boots from a backup
golden BIOS image in the secondary flash. An SNMP trap can be configured to be sent when
the system has booted from the secondary flash. The trap may indicate that the primary
flash component needs to be serviced. The trap is as follows:
2ndflashboot: Secondary flash boot notification
If a BIOS upgrade is needed for enhancements in future releases, the BIOS can be manually
upgraded from the CLI using the coreboot install command.
Software Upgrade Using USB Drive
If a GigaVUE-HC3 does not have network access, there is a USB port on the front of the
chassis. A software image can be downloaded to a USB drive, the drive can be inserted into
the USB port, and the software image can be installed from the drive.
The following are ways to download a software image to a USB drive:
■Insert the drive into your computer or laptop and drag and drop the software image
onto the drive.
■Insert the drive into a GigaVUE-HC3 with network access and use the image fetch CLI
command with the usb download parameter.
Introducing the GigaVUE-HC3 Chassis
GigaVUE-HC3 Extension Board 16
GigaVUE-HC3 Hardware Installation Guide

Chassis Cooling
The fans on the GigaVUE-HC3 run at 50% of their maximum speed on power up, then drop
to approximately 30% during normal operations. The temperatures of five components are
monitored: transceivers, exhaust, CPU, switch CPU, and GigaSMART CPU (e1/e2). When a
component crosses a pre-defined threshold, the fan speed is adjusted dynamically, in
increments of approximately 15% (from 30% to 45% to 60% to 75%, and finally to a maximum
of 80% for CCv1 and CCv2).
An SNMP trap is sent when a component reaches the threshold for warning, alert, or critical
temperature conditions. Refer to Table 3: Component Temperature Thresholds and Actions
for the temperatures at which the warning, alert, and critical traps are sent and any
additional action that occurs at a threshold.

Air Flow Direction
The air flow direction is from the front of the GigaVUE H Series chassis to the rear. The rear-
mounted fans pull air from the front to the back of the chassis. For environments with
hot/cold aisles, install the chassis so the intake air at the front of the chassis is cold.
AC- and DC-Powered GigaVUE-HC3
Gigamon provides both AC- and DC-powered versions of the GigaVUE-HC3. Both models
support the same control modules and can be populated with the modules of your choice.
Refer to Installing Power Supply Modules in GigaVUE-HC3 for information on connecting DC
power supply modules.
Breakout Panels
Breakout panels let you connect ports on a GigaVUE H Series node to a tool or network port
or TAP for port breakout or aggregation.
The following breakout panels are available:
■PNL-M341/PNL-M341T
■PNL-M343/PNL-M343T
Refer to G-TAP MSeries Hardware Guide for details.

Modules are hot-swappable and can be installed in any of the available front bays in a
GigaVUE-HC3 node. However, refer to Module Removal and Replacement Procedure (Hot
Removal) for instructions – you must follow a specific procedure when removing modules to
preserve node stability.
Before installing modules in the node, the GigaVUE-HC3 node must be running software
version 5.0 or higher. Before installing the PRT-HC3-C16 module, the node must be running
software version 5.4 or higher and be equipped with Control Card version 2 (CCv2).
