LC connectors
As an indispensable passive component in a fiber communication system, a fiber connector is mainly used for the removable connection between optical tunnels. This facilitates the testing and maintenance
1-9
of the optical system and makes optical inter-connections more flexible. Currently, the WX3000 series supports only LC connectors. Figure 1-11 LC connector
When connecting a networking device using optical fibers, first make sure that the fiber connectors will work with the optical transceivers. Before connecting fiber cables, make sure that the optical power of the receiver end does not exceed the upper threshold of the receiving optical power of the optical transceiver; otherwise, the optical transceiver may be damaged. For the optical power specifications of the receiver end, refer to Appendix A.
Transceiver Modules
The WX3000 series supports the following optical transceivers: Table 1-11 Description of optical transceivers Item WX3024 FE SFP transceivers WX3010 Supports SFP-FE-SX-MM1310-A Supports SFP-FE-LX-SM1310-A Supports SFP-GE-SX-MM850-A Supports SFP-GE-LX-SM1310-A Supports SFP-GE-LX-SM1310-BIDI Supports SFP-GE-LX-SM1490-BIDI Supports SFP-FE-LX-SM1310-BIDI Supports SFP-FE-LX-SM1550-BIDI Not supported WX3008

Optical transceivers are optional components and are not supplied with the WX3000 series. Use H3C-recommended optical transceivers. For details about the technical specifications of SFP optical transceiver, refer to Appendix A. The WX3024 supports all XFP optical transceivers except those requiring 5.2 V power supply. The BIDI optical transceivers must be used in pairs. For example, if an SFP-GE-LX-SM1310-BIDI is used at one end, an SFP-GE-LX-SM1490-BIDI must be used at the other end. The same is true for FE BIDI modules.
RPS
When the AC power supply fails, an RPS unit can feed power to maintain the normal operation of the system.
The WX3010 and WX3008 do not support the RPS unit. An RPS unit is an optional accessory to be separately orderly if needed. For the RPS unit installation information, refer to section Connecting the RPS Cable on page 3-19.

Safety Precautions
To avoid any device impairment and bodily injury caused by improper use, observe these rules: Pull the power plug(s) out of the device before cleaning the device. Do not clean the device using wet cloth or liquid. Keep the device away from water or dampness. Prevent water or moisture from entering the device chassis. Do not place the device on an unstable case or desk. The device might be damaged severely in case of a fall. Ensure proper ventilation in the equipment room and keep the vents of the device free of obstruction. Make sure that the operating voltage is within the range as labeled on the device. To avoid electrical shocks, do not open the chassis when the device is operating or when electrical hazards are present. When replacing interface modules, always wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap.
2-1
Table 2-1 Working environment Item Temperature Relative humidity Specification 0C to 45C (32F to 113F) 10% to 95% (noncondensing)
Cleanliness
Dust is hazardous to the operating safety of the device. Dust buildup on the chassis may result in static adsorption, causing poor contact of metal connectors or metal contact points. When the relative indoor humidity is low, especially, electrostatic adsorption is more likely to happen. This not only shortens the service life of your device but also causes communication failures. The following table lists the dust concentration limit in the equipment room. Table 2-2 Dust concentration limit in the equipment room Physical active substance Dust particles
4
Limit (particles/m3) 3 10 (No visible dust on the tabletop over three days)
In addition, the equipment room should also meet the rigorous limits on salts, acids, and sulfides to eliminate corrosion and premature aging of some parts. Table 2-3 lists the limits on harmful gases in the equipment room. Table 2-3 Limit on harmful gases in the equipment room Gas SO2 H2S NH3 Cl2 0.2 0.006 0.05 0.01 Limit (mg/m3)
ESD Prevention
Static electricity generation and harms
The electrostatic induction that adversely affects the operation of the device mainly comes from: Outdoor electric fields caused by high-voltage power lines or lightning strikes. Internal systems, such as the indoor environment, floor materials, and the structure of the integrated equipment. Although a great deal of electrostatic discharge (ESD) prevention considerations have been taken in the design of the WX3000 series, excessive static electricity is still remarkably harmful to the whole device.
Make sure that the device and the floor are well grounded. Keep the equipment room clean. Keep proper temperature and humidity conditions. When touching a circuit board, always wear ESD-preventive gloves or an ESD-preventive wrist strap, and wear antistatic work clothes. When mounting, removing, observing, or moving an interface module, always take the printed circuit board (PCB) by the edges without touching the components on the PCB. After removing an interface module, place the PCB on an antistatic workbench with the component-side facing upward or place it in an antistatic bag.
Follow these steps to use an ESD-preventive wrist strap: Step1 Put on and fasten the wrist strap and make sure the wrist strap has good skin contact. Step2 Attach grounding wire to the wrist strap and the alligator clip to the rack. Step3 Verify that the rack is well grounded. Figure 2-1 Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap
EMI Prevention
All interference sources, from the outside or inside of the device and application system, adversely affect the device in the conduction patterns of capacitance coupling, inductance coupling, electromagnetic wave radiation, and common impedance (including grounding system) coupling, and cable conduction (including power cables, signal cables and output cables). To prevent interference, do the following:
2-3
Use a TN system for the system earthing of the AC power supply, and use a single-phase three-wire AC socket with a protection earth (PE) to effectively filter interference from the power grid. Keep the device away from high-power radio transmitters, radars, and high-frequency heavy-current devices. Take electromagnetic shielding measures when necessary. For example, use shielded interface cables. Route the interface cables only indoors to protect signal interfaces against over-voltage or over-current conditions cause by lightning strikes.
Laser Safety
The WX3000 series is the Class 1 laser product. Do not look directly at any working optical transceivers on the WX3000 series because the high-energy laser beam emitted from the optical fiber may hurt your eyes.
Staring into the laser beam emitted from an optical fiber may hurt your eyes.

When you ask your sales agent to maintain your device, make sure that the dismantlement-preventive seal of H3C on a mounting screw of the device chassis is intact. If you want to open the chassis, you should contact the agent for permission. Otherwise, you will bear any consequence resulting from your actions.
If the width of the device is more than 300 mm (11.8 in.), the front mounting brackets can be used only for fixing the device, rather than weight-bearing. The slide rails provided by H3C are suitable only for H3C standard racks with the depth of 1000 mm (39.37 in.). You need to seek other supporting means if your rack has a different depth.

Select the installation location carefully. In the case of poor surface, magnet mounting may not be reliable. Put the device at a stable place free from vibrations or shocks. Otherwise, personal injuries or equipment damage may occur. Avoid installing the device at a high place because personal injuries or equipment damage may occur in case of a falloff. Avoid frequently moving the desk-mounted device because such movements may damage the surface coating. Keep the front panel of the device facing downwards and the two sides with ventilation holes vertical to the ground, if you want to install the device vertically. Pay attention that the weight of external cables should not bring about a falloff, which may result in personal injuries or equipment damage. Keep floppy disks and magnetic cards away from magnets to avoid erasure of any information. Keep computers and monitors that are easily influenced by magnetic fields away from magnets. Otherwise, faults may occur to these electronic devices. The power cords may vary with different standards of different countries, so you may need to select a bail latch as needed.
The correct connection of the protection ground cable of the device is an essential safeguard against lightning strokes and interference. You must correctly connect the ground cable before using your device.
The power input end of the device has a noise filter, whose central ground is directly connected with the chassis, forming the protection ground (PGND) of the chassis. This chassis ground must be securely earthed so that the induction and creepage currents can be safely discharged to the earth to enhance the anti-EMI capability of the device. The following describes how to connect the PGND cable in different situations.
3-15
Figure 3-23 Connect the PGND cable when a grounding strip is available
The fire main and the lightning rod of the building are not good grounding options. The PGND cable of the device should be connected to the earthing system of the equipment room.
Hammer a 0.5 m (1.64 ft.) or longer angle iron or steel tube longer into the earth. Weld the yellow-green grounding cable to the angle iron or steel tube, and treat the joint for corrosion protection. Figure 3-24 Connect the PGND cable to a buried grounding conductor

The power cords may vary with different standards of different countries, so you may need to select a bail latch as needed.
Follow these steps to connect the AC power cable: Step1 Verify that the chassis PGND is correctly connected to the earth ground. Step2 Install the bail latch onto the device and pivot the bail latch up. Step3 Plug one end of the power cable to the AC power receptacle on the rear panel of the chassis and plug the other end to the AC power source. Step4 Place the bail latch over the AC power cable to secure the plug in place. Figure 3-27 Connect the AC power cable
Step5 Check the RPS LED on the front panel of the device. Solid green indicates that the AC power input is normal.
Since the WX3010 and WX3008 do not have the RPS LED, blinking green of the PWR LED indicates that the AC power input is normal. For details about LED status, refer to LEDs on page 1-6. The bail latch prevents the power cable from accidentally falling off.
3-18
Follow these steps to connect the RPS cable: Step1 Check that the device is powered off and the RPS unit is switched off. Step2 Use a Philips screwdriver to remove the screws on the cover on the DC power receptacle and take off the cover. Step3 Connect the RPS cable to the DC power receptacle on the chassis. Step4 Turn the strain release screws on the RPS cable clockwise so that the RPS cable plug is firmly seated in the DC power receptacle, and then fasten the strain release screws. Step5 Connect the other end of the RPS cable to an output interface of the RPS unit. Figure 3-28 Connect the RPS cable

Maintaining Software
Because the display information of the WX3010, WX3024 and WX3008 are similar, this chapter takes the WX3024 as an example.
Introduction
Files Managed by the Device
The WX3000 series consists of two virtual systems: access control engine and switching engine, for which two independent file systems are employed to manage the following four types of files: BootWare program file Application files Configuration files Web files The access control engine manages the BootWare program file and application files; the switching engine manages the Web files; both the access control engine and switching engine store and manage their respective configuration files.
Do not power off or restart the device when updating the BootWare program file; otherwise, the BootWare program may be damaged and the device may fail to operate normally.
5-1
Application Files
The WX3000 series supports the Dual Image function. By default, the system defines three application files for system boot: Main application file (referred to as main file) Backup application file (referred to as backup file) Secure application file (referred to as secure file) These three application files are stored in the flash memory, with the file name extension of .bin. Typically, the default application files are written into the built-in flash memory before device delivery. If you have uploaded all the three types of application files in the flash memory, the system uses these three files to boot the device in the sequence of main.bin, backup.bin, and secure.bin. For how to set the type of an application file, refer to section Maintaining the Application and Configuration Files on page 5-22. The following gives the default names and types of the application files and their priorities for booting: Main application file. The default name is main.bin and the file type is M. it is the default application file for system boot. Backup application file. The default name is backup.bin and the file type is B. If the system fails to boot using the main application file, it tries the backup application file. Secure application file. The default name is secure.bin and the file type is S. If the system fails to boot using the backup application file, it tries the secure application files. If the system fails to boot using the secure file, it gives a startup failure message. Note that: Only the application files of the M, B, and S types can be used to boot the system, while an application file of the N type (an application file other than the M, B, or S type) cannot. You can rename the application files in the flash memory through the command line interface (CLI) after the application program is loaded. You can modify the file type of the M, B, and N types application files through the BootWare menu or the CLI after application startup, while you cannot modify the file type of the S-type application file. The secure application file is the last resort for system boot; therefore, you cannot change the file type of the secure application file or turn another type of file into a secure file by modifying the file type. The secure file can only be downloaded from the BootWare menu. Only one file of the same type (M, B, or S) can exist in the flash memory at a time. For example, if an application file of type M+B exists in the CF card, another file of type M or B cannot exist. If the type of another file is changed to B, the existing type M+B file changes to a file of type M.
Configuration Files
With the file name extension of .cfg, configuration files are used to store the configuration information of the device. Typically, no configuration file with the name extension .cfg is provided when the device is delivered (a configuration file with name extension .def is provided by the switching engine). In this case, the device loads the default configuration at startup. If the configuration file is deleted or missing, the device also loads the default configuration at reboot. The access control engine has only one configuration file with no backup. The switching engine has main and backup configuration files, which are managed like the application files on the access control engine.
5-2
The length of a configuration file name must not exceed 64 characters (including the drive identifier and the string terminator). For example, if the drive identifier is flash: /, the maximum length of a file name is [ 64 1 5 ] = 58 characters. If the length of a file name exceeds 58 characters, operations on that file will fail. It is recommended to keep a file name within 16 characters. There is a limitation on the length of file name that can be displayed in BootWare. If a file name is shorter than 30 characters, all the characters of the file name can be displayed; if a file name has or exceeds 30 characters, only the first 26 characters of the file name can be displayed, followed by a tilde (~) and a serial number. This serial number identifies the position in sequence of the file. For example, if file A, file B and file C have a file name longer than 30 characters, the name of file A will appear as the first 26 characters plus ~001, that of file B will appear as the first 26 characters plus ~002, and that of file C will appear as the first 26 characters plus ~003.
Web Files
Web files are used by the switching engine to provide Web-based functions, and are released with version releases (each version has a default Web file). You are not recommended to modify the file name and settings. Web files fall into main and backup files, and are managed like the application files on the access control engine.
The BootWare program is updated together with the Comware application. When you update the Comware application to the latest version, the BootWare is updated to the latest version automatically. Before updating the software, check the current version of BootWare and that of the application program to make sure that the correct file is used for the update. For the association between the host software version and the BootWare version, refer to the hardware and software compatibility matrix in Release Notes.

File will be transferred in binary mode Downloading file from remote tftp server, please wait...\ TFTP: 855 bytes received in 0 second(s)
If a file with the same name exists on the device, the device will prompt you whether to overwrite the existing file. You can choose Y to overwrite it or N to abort.
When you back up a file to the server, the existing file with the same name on the server, if any, will be replaced without a prompt. The operations mentioned above are to be performed in user view. You can modify the backup configuration file with a text editor and then download the modified file to update the configuration. The update takes effect upon system reboot. Likewise, you can download the application file to the device and overwrite the existing main application file to update the application.

Connect the Ethernet interface GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 of the device to the PC using a crossover Ethernet cable, and configure IP addresses for the Ethernet interface of the device and the PC, which must be on the same network segment so that the device and the PC can communicate with each other. For example, set the IP address of the VLAN interface to 192.168.0.1 and that of the PC to 192.168.0.2. Run the FTP Server on the PC and set the path of the application file to be downloaded, FTP username and password.
The FTP server software is not provided with the WX3000 series. You must make sure that it is available by yourself. On the WX3000 series, only the management Ethernet interface, namely GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 can be used for application update.
For the rest steps, refer to section Configuring the Ethernet interface parameters on page 5-14, section Updating an application file on page 5-15, and section Finalizing application update on page 5-15.

With the device as an FTP server and the PC acting as an FTP client
1) Set up an update environment
For operations on the access control engine, the data needs to be transferred from the switching engine to the access control engine; therefore, you need to configure the IP addresses of the switching engine, access control engine and the PC to be in the same network segment. For example, configure the IP address of the FTP client as 192.168.0.1, that of the access control engine of the device as 192.168.0.2, and that of the switching engine as 192.168.0.3 (to configure the IP address of the switching engine, you need to change to CLI of the switching engine by using the oap command). Verify the connection by using the ping command. For operations on the switching engine, you need to log in to the switching engine using the oap command, configure the IP addresses as mentioned above, and verify the connection by using the ping command. 2) Enable the FTP server The FTP server feature supports concurrent access of multiple clients. Upon receiving a request from an FTP client, the FTP server performs the requested operation and returns the result. Use the following command to enable FTP server:
[System]ftp server enable % Start FTP server
3)
After enabling FTP server and setting the username and password on the device, start the FTP client application on the PC. This example assumes that you use Microsoft FTP Client provided in Windows XP. Open a DOS prompt window, and enter ftp at the DOS prompt.
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>ftp ftp> ftp> open 192.168.0.2 Connected to 192.168.0.2. // The system prompt changed to ftp> // Connect to the device

Appendix B Installation of Lightning Arrester for Network Interfaces B-1 Tools B-1 Installation Procedure B-1 Precautions B-2
You can install a lightning arrester only for the 10M/100M electrical Ethernet interfaces supporting RJ-45 connectors. No lightning arrester for network interface is supplied with the switch.
If an outdoor network cable should be directly led to the switch, please serially connect the lightning arrester for the network interface before you plug this cable into the switch, thus to prevent possible damages to the switch due to lightning strike.
Tools
Philips or flat-blade screwdrivers Multimeter Diagonal cutting plier
Installation Procedure
1) Remove the protective paper on one side of the double-faced adhesive tape and stick it on the shell of the arrester, remove the protective paper on the other side and stick the arrester on the chassis of the switch. Keep the arrester as close to the grounding screw of the switch as possible. 2) 3) 4) Cut the ground cable of the arrester of a suitable length according to the distance between the arrester and the grounding screw and then fasten the cable on the grounding screw tightly. Use the multimeter to verify whether the ground cable of the arrester has a close touch with the grounding screw and chassis of the switch. Follow the instruction of the arrester to connect the arrester for network interface with a transit cable. Pay attention to the direction: IN end of the cable is connected to the arrester while OUT end of the cable is connected to the switch. After the connection, check whether the LEDs of the interface modules are normal.
Technical parameters, installation and maintenance methods of an arrester have been given in the arrester instruction. Read the instruction carefully before installing the lightning arrester for the network interface.
5)
Precautions
To ensure performance of the lightning arrester for network interface during installation, observe the following rules: Properly connect the lightning arrester for network interface, with IN connecting to the lightning arrester while OUT connecting to the network interface of the switch. Correctly ground the lightning arrester. When connecting the ground cable, make sure that the ground cable is of a proper length and has a good touch with the grounding screw of the switch. Check the ground cable with a multimeter after connection. Install adequate lightning arresters for network interfaces. When there are more than one network interface connecting to outdoor cables, you should install a lightning arrester for each of the network interfaces, thus to guard the interfaces against possible damages.

Appendix C Installation of Lightning Arrester for AC Power C-1
No lightning arrester (lightning protection grounding strip) is supplied with the switch.
If an outdoor AC power cable should be directly led to the switch, please serially connect the lightning arrester for AC power (lightning protection grounding strip) before you plug AC power cable into the switch, thus to prevent possible damages to the switch due to lightning strike. You can use cable clips and screws to fasten the lightning arrester for AC power on the cabinet, workbench or the wall of the equipment room. When you power on the switch, the AC power flows through the lightning arrester and then into the switch. Figure C-1 Diagram of lightning arrester
Grounding and polarity indicator (red) On means that the lines are improperly connected (either the grounding cable is not well connected, or the live and zero lines are improperly connected) Please check the power supply circuit . Power switch Normal operation indicator (green): On means that the arrester works normally . Otherwise, the protection circuit has been damaged .
Power socket (complied with IEC standard), connected to the power supply of the equipment room through power cable
Mainboard
Note the following points: 1) 2) Make sure that the PE terminal of the arrester is well grounded before using the lightning arrester for power. Upon plugging the AC power cable connector of the switch into the receptacle of the lightning arrester, if the green LED is on while the red LED does not alarm, it means that the lightning arrester of power is running and the function of lightning protection has taken effect. 3) Pay adequate attention if the red LED is on. You should correctly locate the problem, whether it is caused because the ground cable of the arrester is not well grounded or because the live and zero wires are connected in reverse direction. 4) You may use a multimeter to examine the polarity at the power receptacle of the arrester:
C-1
If the multimeter displays that the left wire is the zero wire and the right is the live wire, it means that the PE terminal of the arrester is not well grounded. Otherwise, it means that the power receptacle of the arrester is set to the reverse polarity. In this case, open the power receptacle of the arrester and correct the polarity. After that, if the red LED still alarms, it means that the arrester is not well grounded yet.
