To prevent an IP address conflict, do not connect the management port to the network until the initial
configuration is complete. For configuration instructions, see the Configuration Guide for the version of Cisco
UCS Manager that you are using. The configuration guides are available at this URL: http://www.cisco.com/

Caution
The Ethernet management connector port has an RJ-45 interface that will connect to a switch or router.
Procedure
Step 1 Connect the appropriate modular cable to the Ethernet management connector port:
• Use modular, RJ-45, straight-through UTP cables to connect the port to an Ethernet switch or hub.
• Use a cross-over cable to connect to a router interface.
Step 2 Connect the other end of the cable to the device.

Installing or Removing Cables into SFP Transceivers
To prevent damage to the fiber-optic cables, do not place more tension on them than the rated limit and do
not bend to a radius of less than 1 inch if there is no tension in the cable, or 2 inches if there is tension in the
cable.
Caution
Installing a Transceiver
