Connecting Cables - HP LC2000r - NetServer - 128 MB RAM Manual

Connecting Cables

1. If you are using an optical GBIC module, remove the dust plug covers
protecting the optical connectors before inserting the fibre-channel cable. Save
the dust plug covers for future use.
2. Select the correct cable that matches the GBIC you installed and install the
end connectors into the GBIC. The GBIC and Fibre Channel cable are keyed, so
they can only fit one way. Refer to Figure 2-3. on page 8 for optical cable
connection and Figure 2-4. on page 9 for copper cable connection.
3. Support the Fibre Channel cable so that you do not have a bend radius of less
than 3 inches.
4. Support and route the Fibre Channel cable to prevent damage from sharp
edges or from being crushed by nearby equipment.
