OL-7824-02
6-1
This chapter provides instructions for cabling the Gigabit Ethernet ports for both one and two
SCE 2000
topologies, and for configuring Gigabit Ethernet (GBE) interface parameters. In a
topology utilizing two
SCE 2000
s (cascade), this includes the cascade ports as well as the line
ports.
Note
When installing a cascaded system, it is extremely important to follow the sequence of procedures
outlined in the section
Installing a Cascaded System
(on page
6-12
).
Note
When installing an External Optical Bypass module, the
SCE 2000
line ports are connected to the
module. See
Cabling the External Optical Bypass Module
(on page
