Connecting Cables
This chapter explains how to connect various cables to the ETERNUS AF.
4.1
Host Interface Cable Connection
Connect the ETERNUS AF to the connection destination using host interface cables. The connection procedure
varies depending on the type of host interface that is used for the ETERNUS AF.
If the host interface is iSCSI 10Gbit/s (10GBASE-SR), and an FC cable is used for the connection, the SFP+
module must be installed in the host interface port before the cable is connected.
Prepare the same number of host interface cables as the number of host interface ports.
To help with host interface cable management and prevent incorrect connections, attach labels to the
•
cables that show which end is for the connection origin and which end is for the connection destination.
When connecting a host interface cable, check the direction of the connector tab and insert it all the
•
way in firmly.
When disconnecting a host interface cable, pull out the connector while holding its tab.
If the host interface ports and host interface cable connectors have covers, remove the covers. Keep the
•
removed covers in a safe place where they will not be lost.
When connecting the cables, position them so that they will not obstruct replacement of the power sup-
•
ply unit or controllers by the maintenance engineer.
Do
Wear a wrist strap or touch a metal part to discharge the human body's natural
•
static electricity before starting each operation. Failure to discharge static electrici-
ty may cause failure in the ETERNUS AF.
