Installing a Media Server
Connecting a Media Server to the Fibre Channel Switch
To connect a Media Server to the MEDIASwitch:
1. Locate the optical cable. Look for a cable with a dual plug on the
end (see Figure 1-1).
2. Make sure the cable has an LC (small) optical connector to match
the connector on the adapter board. If the connector is not the
correct one, contact your optical cable installer to arrange for them
to change the connector.
3. Remove the protective covers from the optical connector on the
optical cable.
4. Remove the protective cover from the Fibre Channel adapter
board in the Media Server.
5. Plug the optical cable connector into the adapter board. The
connector and adapter board are keyed and only fit together one
way. You should hear a click when the cable is properly seated (see
Figure 1-1).
