The cable connections are made at the factory from the standard I/O modules in
PCI boxes in the GS160/320 power cabinet and in the GS80 cabinet. For PCI
boxes in expander cabinets, an H8585–AA connector (12–36054–01) is installed
on the local port (
in Figure 6–3) and a BN25G cable (17–03212–05) is labeled
and attached at the factory.
Make the connection to each console (PCI box with a standard I/O module) in an
expander cabinet. Follow the cabling chart in Table 6–1 and attach the BN25G
cabletotheportontheterminalserver(
in Figure 6–4).
Table 6–1 shows the suggested cabling for master PCI boxes only. This
numbering matches the default SMC setup. Secondary boxes (if there are any)
can be cabled to unused terminal server ports.
