(2) Connection of disk array unit with host system
a)
With the host bus adapter connectors of "LC" type
Use the separately priced FC cable (NF9320-SJ0xE). Push the connector at
either end of the cable into the FC connector (HFx) for the host bus adapter of
either controller (CONT0 or CONT1) until a click is heard. The FC cable has
the same connectors at both ends. Either connector may be connected to the
controller.
If the connector is pushed hard, the end face may be hurt to
decrease optical output. This may cause invalid operation to occur.
Connect the connector at the other end of the FC cable to the host bus adapter
installed in the host system.

Similarly, connect the other controller with the other host bus adapter installed
in the host system.
b) With the host bus adapter connectors of "SC" type
Use the separately priced FC conversion cable (NF9310-SJ10E). The cable
has different-size connectors at the ends. Push the smaller connector into the
FC connector (HFx) for the host bus adapter of either controller (CONT0 or
CONT1) until a click is heard.
If the connector is pushed hard, the end face may be hurt to
decrease optical output. This may cause invalid operation to occur.

Connect the other end of the FC conversion cable to the SC-SC cable via the
relay connector provided with the FC conversion cable. Push the connector so
that it clicks securely. The connector at an end of the SC-SC cable is the same
as that at the other end. Either of the connectors may be connected to the relay
connector.
Connect the connector at the other end of the SC-SC cable to the host bus
adapter installed in the host system.
Similarly, connect the other controller with another host bus adapter installed in
the host system.
