Planning for Communications and Data Cables
Communications Line Planning 4-5
 U520 Single-Port 4/16-Mbps Token-Ring PCI Adapter—Token ring cable, which
you must provide, for each PCI adapter
 U528 Optical Fibre Channel PCI Adapter—Optical fibre-channel cable, which you
must provide, from each PCI adapter to each E124 storage-system cabinet
 U534V Dual-Port Optical Fibre Channel PCI Adapter
– Optical Fibre Channel cables, which are provided with the adapter, from the
U534V PCI adapter to each E124 storage-system cabinet
– If U773 fibre channel switches are present, Fibre Channel cable
(AW-B90000-020) from ports on each U534V PCI adapter to each
U773 12-Port Fibre Channel Switch and tape drive
 U574V-LC Dual-Port Fiber Gigabit Ethernet Adapter—Multi-mode, dual-fiber
cables, which you must provide, from each PCI adapter to each site network
connection point. See the Stratus ftServer Systems: PCI Adapter Guide (R461) for
more information about cables.
 U575V Dual-Port Copper Gigabit Ethernet Adapter—Unshielded twisted pair
(UTP) Ethernet cable, which you must provide, from each PCI adapter to each site
network connection point. See the Stratus ftServer Systems: PCI Adapter
Guide (R461) for more information about cables.
 U576 One-Port 1000Base-SX Ethernet PCI Adapter—Multimode fiber Ethernet
cable with an SC-type fiber-optic connector, which you must provide, from each
PCI adapter to each site network connection point. See the Stratus ftServer
Systems: PCI Adapter Guide (R461) for more information about cables.
 U577 One-Port 10/100/1000 Base-T Ethernet PCI Adapter—Unshielded twisted
pair (UTP) Ethernet cable, which you must provide, from each PCI adapter to each
site network connection point. See the Stratus ftServer Systems: PCI Adapter
Guide (R461) for more information about cables.
In addition to the communications cables, you must also plan to provide:
 Network connection points for the network Ethernet cables from host (customer
must provide)
 Separate IP subnets for various system components. See ‘‘IP Subnet
Requirements’’ on page 4-7 for details.
 A telephone and one or two telephone lines:
– One telephone and line for use when calling for service. The telephone should
be placed such that it can be used by a person who has access to the PC
console, the front of the system, and to the back of the system.
– If you are using the AA-E96600 RSN dialup console server, an additional
analog telephone line is required for connection to the RSN modem.
