Cabling Controller Nodes—4-Node systems
Interconnect link cables are used with 4-node systems to interconnect the nodes.
NOTE:
•
2-node system
—Interconnect link ports are not used and the port LEDs should always be
off.
•
4-node systems
—Interconnect link ports are used to connect nodes together.
Controller nodes are numbered 0 to 3 from bottom to top. Connections between controller nodes
0 and 1 and controller nodes 2 and 3 use four large interconnect link cables.
These cables are directional and must be installed correctly for the system to function properly.
When inserting the cables, you should hear a click to confirm the cable is correctly installed. If
you have to force the connector, the connector is upside down and needs to be inverted. The
direction of the cable connection is indicated by labels on either end of the cable.
