2 G700 Media Gateway: Cabling Multiple Units
Connect Units within a Single Stack
Begin
1. Connect the light grey connector of the short Avaya X330SC cable (12 in, 30 cm) to the port
marked "to upper unit" in the bottom-most stack element.
Connect the dark grey connector of the same short X330SC cable to the port marked "to the lower
2.
unit" in the unit above.
Repeat until you reach the top element in the stack. Up to ten units can be stacked together.
3.
To implement stack redundancy:
Use the Redundant Cable to connect the port marked "to lower unit" on the bottom element to the
4.
port marked "to upper unit" on the top element of the stack.
End
If you have elements of a stack in two racks, you must use the Avaya X330LC cable to connect them. You
may not link more than 10 units to form a stack, but those units can be mounted in more than one rack.
Link Elements in Multiple Racks
Begin
Use the long (6ft, 2 m) Avaya X330LC cable to connect elements in two racks.
1.
Connect the Avaya X330LC cable (dark grey connector) to the port on first unit of the stack
2.
marked "to the lower unit."
Connect the Avaya X330LC cable (light grey connector) to the port on the last unit in the stack
3.
marked "to the upper unit."
To implement stack redundancy:
Connect the dark grey connector of the black Redundant Cable to the port marked "to lower unit"
4.
on the bottom unit of the stack.
Connect the light grey connector of the black Redundancy Cable to the port marked "to upper
5.
unit" on top unit of the stack.
!
CAUTION:
Do not cross-connect two stack elements with two Octaplane (light-colored) cables. If you
wish to cross-connect for redundancy, use a black redundancy cable.
