Uplogix 500/5000 Local Managers
The Uplogix Local Manager is a management device that connects directly to managed
network devices and servers.
Uplogix 500
The Uplogix 500 is a small form factor Local Manager offering a fixed set of console ports for
connection to managed devices.
There are six serial ports that can be connected to managed devices. One port is dedicated for
connection to an intelligent power controller.
Uplogix 5000
The Uplogix 5000 may be customized by installing expansion cards in the two modular bays.
Each expansion bay can be used to add either 4, 8 or 16 serial ports or eight dedicated
Ethernet ports, for pairing with serial ports, when direct Ethernet connections are needed for
managed devices.

Installation Guide for Uplogix Local Managers 4
Hardware installation
Ensure that the power source:
Provides appropriate power, AC or DC, as required by the system.
Provides overload protection
Is connected to earth ground
Warning: The power source must meet all these requirements to ensure safe and reliable
operation.
Ensure that the installation site meets the requirement that the ambient temperature does not
exceed 113° F (45° C) or fall below 32°F (0°C).
Caution: The unit will overheat if the site does not meet these requirements.
Caution: Use only the power supply shipped with the Local Manager 500. Using a different
power supply will void your warranty and may damage the equipment.

Installing the Uplogix 500 Local Manager
Uplogix 500
This section includes:
Unpacking the shipping box
Installing optional equipment
Installing the chassis
Making the connections required for initial configuration
Making the remaining connections
Unpacking the shipping box
Verify that you have received the following items:
Uplogix 500 Local Manager
1 Power supply and cord
1 mounting bracket
1 DB-9 to RJ-45 serial adaptor
Screws

Installing optional equipment
The Uplogix 500 supports field-installable modems, small form factor pluggable (SFP)
modules, and a temperature and humidity sensor. The Uplogix 500 also supports a 2-bracket
kit for center-mounting. Optional equipment may ship separately from the Local Manager.
Installing an Option Card in the Option Slot
The Local Manager supports five styles of equipment for installation in the option slot: V.92
modem, GPRS cellular modem, CDMA cellular modem, a DB-9 connection for an external
modem, and a SFP module to support a fiber connection.
Caution: To prevent equipment damage, do not connect the internal modem to digital PBX
systems, VoIP analog terminal adapters, or cellular modems. It is designed for use with
analog telephone lines only. Uplogix is not responsible for damage caused from attaching
the modem to a digital phone switch.

Installation Guide for Uplogix Local Managers 6

slot screw holes, and replace the screws.
5. Install antenna.
6. Power on the Local Manager.

Installation Guide for Uplogix Local Managers 7
CDMA cellular modem
Follow these steps to install the CDMA cellular modem:
1. Power off the Local Manager.
2. Note the Electronic Serial Number (ESN) on the modem, as this will be needed in
order to activate the modem on your carrier’s network.
3. Remove the option slot cover, align the modem carrier card with the internal rails, and
slide the modem into place.
4. Feed wire into the option slot compartment, align modem cover plate with the option

Installing an SFP module
Follow these steps to install the SFP module in the chassis option slot of the Local Manager:
1. Power off the Local Manager
2. Remove the option slot cover, align the carrier card with the internal rails, and slide the
module into place.
3. Replace the screws.
4. Install either a 1000Base SX (GLC-SX-MM) SFP or the 1000Base LX/LH (GLC-LH-SM) SFP
for fiber connectivity. Both the 1000Base SX (GLC-SX-MM) SFP and the 1000Base LX/LH
(GLC-LH-SM) SFP are customer-provided equipment.
Note: SFP modules are hot swappable, but the SFP carrier option card is not hot
swappable.
Installing a Temperature and Humidity Sensor
The Local Manager supports a USB-connected temperature and humidity sensor. Follow these
steps to connect the sensor. Note the Local Manager does not need to be powered down for
installation of this sensor.
1. Plug the sensor into one of the two USB connections on the Local Manager
2. Place sensor collection end in the area you wish to collect environmental information,
ideally not near a fan or on hot equipment.
It may take up to 10 minutes for the sensor to normalize to the environmental temperature
and begin reporting consistent data.
Installing the chassis
The Local Manager is designed to be mounted in a rack or placed on a tabletop. To mount the
Local Manager in a rack:
1. Use the screws provided to attach the mounting bracket.
2. The mounting bracket can be installed on either side of the Uplogix 500.
3. Mount the Local Manager in the rack.

Installation Guide for Uplogix Local Managers 9
Installing optional center-mounting kit
Uplogix sells an optional kit for center-mounting the Uplogix 500.
To mount the Local Manager with the center-mount kit in a rack:
1. Attach the mounting brackets.
2. Mount the Local Manager in the rack.
Making the connections required for initial configuration
To complete initial setup, you must make these connections:
Power
Console

Installation Guide for Uplogix Local Managers 10
Connecting power
The Uplogix Local Manager uses an external power supply, which is shipped with the device.
Caution: Use only the power supply shipped with the Local Manager 500. Using a different
power supply will void your warranty and may damage the equipment.
Connect the power supply to the DC connector on the back of the device.
Connect the power cord to the power supply. Use either the provided power cord or one that is
suitable for your location. The Uplogix Local Manager uses a power cord with a standard IEC-
320-C13 female cord end.
Connect the power cord to a power outlet. An amber light indicates that the unit has power
applied. Power on the unit by pressing the power button. The system status LED (denoted with
an ‘i’ label on the chassis) will blink while the Local Manager boots up and becomes a solid
green light when the boot sequence is complete.

Installation Guide for Uplogix Local Managers 11
Connecting a workstation
To complete initial setup, you must connect your workstation to the Local Manager's RJ-45
console port.
If your workstation has a DB-9 serial port, use the DB-9 to RJ-45 adaptor provided by
Uplogix (see diagram below) and a straight Ethernet cable to connect to the console port.
If your workstation does not have a DB-9 serial port, you will need to use a USB to DB-9
serial adaptor together with a straight Ethernet cable and the DB-9 adaptor provided by
Uplogix to connect to the console port.
The default settings for the console port are 9600, 8, N, 1.
Note: The mini-USB console port will be supported in a future software release.
Following initial setup, you may choose to disconnect the console cable and manage the Local
Manager via Ethernet.
Making the remaining connections
These connections are not required to complete the initial setup:
Power controller
Management Ethernet
Devices to be managed

Installation Guide for Uplogix Local Managers 12
Connecting a power controller
Connect the power controller's serial port to port 1/6 on the Local Manager. A straight
Ethernet cable is typically used for this connection. However, some power controllers require
special cables. Consult your power controller documentation if a straight Ethernet cable does
not work.
Connecting management Ethernet
To manage the Local Manager and attached devices in-band through the network, connect
Gigabit Ethernet port 0 (GE-0) on the front panel to your network using a straight Ethernet
cable. Both GE-0 and GE-1 auto negotiate their speed and duplex settings by default.
Alternatively, if your management network is fiber based, connect to the SFP in the option
slot. If GE-0 or GE-1 are connected to the network, they will take precedence over the fiber
connection.
When connected, secondary management Ethernet port GE-1 acts as a standby redundant
Ethernet management connection by default. GE-1 will become active if the GE-0 link drops.
Therefore, it is important that GE-0 and GE-1 be connected to switch ports in the same
network or VLAN.
Connecting devices to be managed
Connect the console ports of up to five devices to the five serial ports (1/1 through 1/5) on the
Local Manager. A straight Ethernet cable works for most devices, but some devices do require
a rolled cable or a cable with a non-standard pin out. Consult your managed device’s
documentation for console port serial setting and pin out information as necessary.
Note: If port 1/5 on your Local Manager is labeled as ‘1/5-DTE’, you will likely need to use a
rolled cable to connect this port to a managed device.
