TheUSR45041GVariable4PortAggregator&Regeneratorcaneitherbeusedtoaggregatemultiplecopiesoftraffictogetherforasingle
monitoringtoolorduplicatetrafficformultiplemonitoringtools.Inourexamplebelow,weshowtheoutputfromatappedlinkbeingcombined
withtheoutputfromaSPANport.
Installation
TheportsontheUSR4504areusedtoconnecttodifferentdevicesbasedonthepositionofthedipswitchonthebackoftheunit.
1 IN 3 OUT: Inthismode,theport1isconnectedtoalocationonthenetworkthatismakingacopyoftrafficfromaSPAN,Mirror,orTap
monitoringport.Ports2-4generatecopiesofthistrafficandconnecttoseparatemonitoringtools.Eachtoolreceivesafullcopyofthetraffic.
3 IN 1 OUT:Inthismode,theports1-3areconnectedtolocationsonthenetworkthataremakingcopiesoftraffic,likeSPAN,Mirror,orTap
monitoringports.Port4isconnectstothemonitoringtoolthatneedsaccesstotheaggregatetraffic.
Switch Settings
Aconvenientswitchonthebackofthetapcanbeusedtotogglebetween
eachmode.Whensetto“1IN3OUT”,Ports2,3,and4willtransmitthe
trafficbeingreceivedonport1.Whenthedeviceissetto“3IN1OUT”
mode,Port4willtransmitacopyofalltrafficreceivedonports1,2,and3.
Additionalfeatures
• TheUSR4504supportsdualredundantpowersupplies.Onepower
supplyisprovided,asecondcanbesourcedfromUSR.Whenused
withtwopowersuppliesthedevicewillremainpoweredevenifone
powersupplyfails.Itisrecommendedthateachpowersupplyis
connectedtoaseparatecircuitbreakertominimizetheriskofpower
loss.
• TheUSR4504supportspassingPower-Over-Ethernet(PoE)onall

USR4504 - Installation Guide
Installation Notes:
• BeforesettingtheUSR4504to“3IN1OUT”mode,itisimportanttoconsiderthelinkutilizationontheports1,2,and3.Ifthecombined
trafficovertheseportsexceedthespeedofthemonitoringdevices,lossoftrafficthroughtheUSR4504portswilloccur.
• AllportsontheUSR4504aresettoAUTOspeednegotiation.Iftheseportsareconnectedtodeviceswithmanualspeedsettings,confirm
thatthedevicesontheeithersideofthetapareatthesamespeed.ForoptimalresultssetalldevicestoAUTOspeednegotiation.
• Itisrecommendedthattheendpointdevicesconnectedtoeachnetworkportarecapableofthesamemaximumspeed.Oversubscription
mayoccurifthespeedsaremismatched.
• MDI-Xmayneedtobeturnedoffonsomenetworkdevicesconnectedtothetapforpropercommunication.
• Powersuppliesshouldbeconnectedtooutletswithdifferentcircuitbreakerstomaintainmaximumuptime.
• Themaximumcablelengthbetweennetworkdevices(notincludingthetap)shouldbe90m
• RackmountUSR4500-RMKisavailableseparatelytomount3unitshorizontally.
