b. Observing ESD precautions, store the transceiver in an ESD-safe place. c. Remove the mounting bracket screws from the top of the HBA. Removing the Bracket Mounting Screws FIGURE 2-3 d. Remove the bracket and store it for future use. e.
9. Replace the computer case and tighten the case screws. The HBA is now installed in the computer and is ready for media attachment. ▼ To Connect the Optical Cable Note – The HBA does not allow normal data transmission on an optical link unless it is connected to another similar or compatible Fibre Channel product (that is, multimode to multimode).
Attaching the Optical Cable FIGURE 2-4 2. Connect the other end of the cable to the FC device. After the optical cable is connected to the HBA, you can power on the system. ▼ To Apply Power 1. Verify that the HBA is securely installed in the system. 2.

The HBA can be identified in the output by looking for the SUNW,emlxs@n and SUNW,emlxs@n,1 node names, where n is usually a single-digit number from 0 to 9. In this example, there are two dual port (SG-XPCIE2FC-EM8-Z) and one single port (SG-XPCIE1FC-EM8-Z) HBAs installed. {0} ok show-devs /pci@7c0/pci@0...
