Checking Fabric Interconnect cable connections

Check and verify the Fabric Interconnect (FI) cable connections in a VSP 7000 Series stack.
About this task
Consider each pair of FI ports on a unit as a single connection. Each pair of FI ports requires two FI
cables. Avaya recommends you to use two matched FI cables for each unit. For redundant virtual
fabrics, you require one matched pair of longer FI cables to complete the loop from the bottom unit
to the top unit.
Procedure
1. View the Up and Down LED status to determine the state of the FI connections.
2. Ensure that the FI cable connectors are correctly and securely inserted into the correct FI-up
or FI-down ports on the rear of each unit in the stack.
Caution:
FI connectors can reach temperatures exceeding 65C. Use caution around all metal
surfaces.
Important:
You must orient each FI cable connector so that the alignment slot on the FI cable aligns
with the alignment tab on the FI port. Verify that the cable is inserted properly and that
the cable connector pull tab is facing up.
