NOTE: If replacing the single-mode SFP modules with multi-mode modules, the
single-mode patch lead between the SFP module and the MST Composite Cable
connector on the inside of the housing needs to be replaced with a multi-mode
patch lead.
JB11 junction boxes can be connected inline between any two units in the chain
to supply power. There is no need to isolate AXON Core units to a single power
source.
IMPORTANT: If an SFP is changed, the device must be rebooted or reset to
detect the change.
2.3.2 Copper Ethernet Ports
AXON Core has four external Copper Ethernet ports that enable connection to other networking
devices.
The four Ethernet ports also provide IEEE 802.3at PoE+ (Power over Ethernet) injector functionality,
allowing a single cable to be used for data and power to network devices. Each Ethernet port's
functionality can be configured by the web browser interface, or by centralised configuration
management.
One of these four ports, located on the top of AXON Core, will typically be used for AXON Air module
connection, but can also be used for any other purpose. Similarly, any of the other PoE+ ports can be
used to connect AXON Air module.
For more information on configuring Ethernet ports, see Chapter 7: Configuration Using the Web
Interface
2.3.3 Expansion sockets
AXON Core has two expansion sockets on its front panel that allow adding optional expansion
modules to it.
