PRT-HC1-X12 Module

The PRT-HC1-X12 line card consists of twelve(12) 1Gb/10Gb (X1 to X12) SFP/SFP+ ports. This module increases the port density and allows GigaVUE-HCT to connect with GigaVUE TA Series and GigaVUE HC Series nodes with 1G/10G links. It provides connectivity of 120Gb with line rate on-board switching across 1Gb/10Gb ports. All ports in the PRT-HC1-X12 module can be used as network, tool, hybrid, circuit, inline network, and inline tool ports. Moreover, the 10Gb ports can be used as stack-link ports.

Before installing the PRT-HC1-X12 Module, the GigaVUE-HCT must be running software version 6.9 or higher. Refer to 1 PRT-HC1-X12 Module.

Rules and Notes

1.   In a cluster, performing chassis reload, power cycle, or PRT-HC1-X12 card shut while traffic is running may cause ports to malfunction. To resolve this issue, stop the traffic first, then reload or power cycle the chassis.
2. In a cluster, performing port shut while traffic is running may cause ports to malfunction. To resolve this issue, stop the traffic first, then toggle the malfunctioning port admin status.
