Emulex Documentation, Drivers and Software Set Jumpers Emulex LightPulse Caution electronic components that can be damaged by static electricity through an electrostatic discharge (ESD) event. To prevent ESD damage, maintain constant contact with any grounded metal surface. A grounding wrist strap is useful for this purpose.
Since this adapter has two ports, there are two IEEE addresses. The IEEE address is used when configuring your system. The serial number is used when communicating with Emulex. All numbers are clearly marked on the board. We recommend that you record these numbers before installation.
Emulex Documentation, Drivers and Software Attach Media The host bus adapter will not allow normal data Note transmission on an optical link unless it is connected to another similar or compatible laser product (that is, multimode to multimode.) Use multimode fiber optic cable, with short-wave lasers, that adheres to the following...
Emulex Documentation, Drivers and Software Apply Power 1. Verify that the host bus adapter is securely installed in the computer. 2. Verify that the correct media is attached. 3. Plug in and turn on the computer. 4. Observe LEDs for Power On Self Test (POST) results.

Emulex Documentation, Drivers and Software GBIC The optical GBIC is an integrated duplex data link for bi-directional communications over multimode or single mode optical fiber. Each GBIC consists of a transmitter and receiver optical subassembly. The transmitter subassembly contains a semiconductor laser emitting in the wavelength range of 770 to 860 nanometers for shortwave length GBICs and 1270 to 1355 nanometers for long wavelength GBICs.
