The details of the NS3600 front and rear panels are described below.
Console port (1)
USB port (2)
RJ-45 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet Monitoring ports (1-4 and 7-10)
RJ-45 10/100/1000 Management port (MGMT) (1)
RJ-45 10/100/1000 Response port (R1) (1)
2-port 10/1 Gbps Ethernet Monitoring ports (5-6) (This requires SFP/SFP+ transceivers and they are sold separately.)
4-port 10/1 Gbps Ethernet Fiber Ethernet Monitoring ports (11-14) (Pluggable module)
4-port RJ-45 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet Monitoring ports (11-14) (Pluggable module)
Note
The I/O pluggable modules are not hot swappable.
Power supply inlet (2)
Fan units (5)
Power supply LED (1)
The direction of airflow in all the Sensors is from front to back. Cold air enters through the front of the chassis.
The following table gives the details of the supported ports.
Ports | NS3600 |
|---|---|
Transceiver Fiber ports | 2 (1/10 Gbps) |
Pluggable I/O module with Fixed Fiber ports (internal fail-open) | 4 (1/10 Gbps) |
Pluggable I/O module with Fixed RJ-45 port (internal fail-open) | 4 (10/100/1000 Mbps) |
Fixed RJ-45 ports (internal fail-open) | 8 (10/100/1000 Mbps) |
Console port | 1 |
Dedicated Response ports (RJ-45) | 1 (10/100/1000 Mbps) |
Dedicated Management ports (RJ-45) | 1 (10/100/1000 Mbps) |
USB port | 2 |
Console port — This is used to set up and configure the Sensor using the CLI.
RJ-45 10/100/1000 Mbps ethernet monitoring ports — Enables you to monitor eight SPAN ports, four segments in-line, or a combination.
1/10 Gbps fiber ethernet monitoring ports — Enables you to monitor 2 SPAN ports or one segment in-line.
External USB port — Use these in troubleshooting situations for system recovery purposes. You need to restart the sensor using the USB storage device.
RJ-45 10/100/1000 Management port — Use for communication with the Manager server. You can assign an IP address to this port during installation.
RJ-45 10/100/1000 Response port — When you operate this port in SPAN or tap mode, it enables you to inject response packets back through a switch or a router.
Power Supply — NS3600 Sensor includes the power supply. The supply uses a standard IEC port (IEC320-C13). Trellix provides a standard, 2 m NEMA 5-15P (US) power cable (3 wire). International customers must procure a country-appropriate power cable.
The NS-series Sensor does not have internal taps; you must use a third-party external tap to run it in tapped mode.
