Unpack the packing box; verify contents

• The FibreBridge. Note the serial number of your
FibreBridge unit: ________________________

Install the FibreBridge

1
Place the FibreBridge on a stable flat surface or
install it into a standard rack.
2
If installing into a rack, attach the brackets to
both sides of the FibreBridge enclosure. Then
install the FibreBridge assembly horizontally
within the rack so it does not reduce the air flow
within the rack.
3
Connect the host computer by connecting the
cable to FC port 1 or 2.
4
Connect target devices by connecting SAS
cables to SAS connector A, B, C or D.
5
Power up the target devices.
6
Connect the Ethernet port to your network.
7
Connect the AC power cords from the
FibreBridge to the proper AC source outlets.
Note
Power is automatically supplied to the 7500
when plugged into an AC outlet.
CAUTION
CAUTION
The power source must be connected to a
protective earth ground and comply with
local electrical codes. Improper grounding
may result in an electrical shock or damage
to the unit. Also, be aware that this unit is
powered on once a power source is
connected. Make sure the power supply
module is fully inserted before applying
power. Failure to do so may cause injury or
damage the unit.
