2.4 Rack Mounting
The RamSan-3xx series solid state disk is a 3U rack-mountable system.
TMS ships the system with the slides and equipment needed to install it
into a standard 19" rack.
2.5 Connecting the Fibre Channel Ports
After you have inspected the system and properly mounted it, connect the
Fibre Channel ports on the RamSan to either your server or to a Fibre
Channel switch.

Your system includes from one to four FC65 Fibre Channel controllers.
Figure 2-2 shows the port layout for the RamSan. Each controller has two
Fibre Channel ports: A and B, on the top and bottom respectively. The
FC65 ports on the system are capable of connecting to point-to-point,
arbitrated loop, and switched fabric topologies at either 2-Gigabit or
1-Gigabit speeds.
2.6 Connecting the Power Supplies
TMS equips the RamSan with dual redundant hot-swappable power
supplies that operate on 110/220 VAC line power. A fully loaded RamSan
requires approximately 350 watts of power. Using the provided AC power
cords, connect both power supplies to a power source. Install the socket
outlet in an easily accessible location near the equipment.
For normal system operation, connect both power supplies to an external
power source. Since the power supplies are redundant, you may remove
line power from one without any interruption in system operation. If a
RamSan-320 completely looses external power, it will shutdown after a
defined amount of time.
