Important! If you use split power cables, as shown in the figure above, make
sure the split cables power separate components. Do not use a split power cable
to power two sides of the same component. The two sides need to be on
separate circuits, in case one side fails.
The amperage requirements for an FC Brick is higher than a SATA Brick.
Configuring for FC Bricks may require upgrading your PDU specification. If you
have any questions about your PDU configuration, contact the Pillar World Wide
Customer Support Center.
The following figure illustrates one way to distribute the load with one Slammer
and 16 FC Bricks (and a Pilot).
