Chapter 1. Preparing to set up your 5065 or 5066
This chapter explains what you need to do before you install your 5065 or 5066
Expansion Unit. This includes the following tasks:
1.
Unpack your expansion unit (refer to the instructions for unpacking that came
with your expansion unit).
2.
Plan layouts for your cables.
3.
Power down your system unit.
Before you begin the installation process, you should carefully plan where you will
install your new expansion unit. You should consider several factors that include
size, weight, security, and environmental factors. IBM provides detailed
information for AS/400 planning at the following web site:

AS/400 Site Preparation
Guide and other relevant information by

Hardware requirements
When you ordered your new expansion unit, the configurator took an inventory of
your system. The configurator then determined if you needed to add an optical
card or an SPCN card.
If you received these features in your new expansion unit package, contact IBM or
an Authorized Dealer to make arrangements to have them installed.

need to have these prerequisites:

An available 2688 optical link processor (OLP) card (one OLP card can support
two expansion units).
If you are connecting your 5065 Expansion Unit to another expansion unit, your
expansion unit needs to have:
