Table 17 describes the link/activity and connection speed associated with the Control
Station (RJ-45) port LEDs.
Ethernet cable extensions for the Control Station B and MGMT ports
Each File/Unified VNX5400 platform 1U Control Station comes with two modular Ethernet
cable extensions (or patch cords) for the RJ-45 ports (labeled on the CS as B and MGMT,
respectively). These cables (Figure 23) allow you to extend the length of the Ethernet
cables from the CS 0, port B to Data Mover enclosure 0, management module B, port 1
and CS 0, MGMT port to the public LAN.
If your File/Unified VNX5400 platform includes a second optional 1U Control Station
(CS 1), another set of Ethernet cable extensions for the RJ-45 ports is provided. These
cables allow you to extend the length of the Ethernet cables from the CS 1, port B to Data
Mover enclosure 0, management module B, port 2 and CS 1, MGMT port to the public LAN.
Each cable includes a corresponding label clip to assist you during system cabling.
Note: If you received the File/Unified VNX5400 platform already installed in a cabinet rack
with all of the File/Unified VNX5400 platform components, all the cabling has already
been installed.

Control Station serial console (DB-9) plug connector
The back of the File/Unified VNX5400 platform system 1U Control Station includes a
standard serial console Electronics Industries Association (EIA) RS-232 interface (DB-9)
plug connector. Notice the orientation of the pins (Figure 24).
