C7420 Digital Fiber C/Port Overview

In typical ClearCube environments, PC blades are centrally–

located in data centers. Each blade user has a user port (such as a 

C7420) on their desk, which has a network connection to a PC 

blade. A C7420 provides the interface to the blade. That is, the user 

can connect monitors, pointing devices, and other peripherals to 

the C7420 to receive peripheral data sent from a blade and to send 

USB data to the blade.
The C7420 securely extends user desktops from centralized PC 

blades. This point-to-point fiber optic solution supports existing 

fiber cabling infrastructures that employ a pair of multi-mode 

fibers for each user. The C7420 connects to a F6150 fiber 

transceiver chassis using a pair of 62.5µ or 50µ, multi-mode fibers 

through an LC connector.

Setting up Your C7420 Digital Fiber C/Port

Perform the following steps to set up the C7420 Digital Fiber

C/Port. To mount the C7420 under a desk, use a 9/64–inch drill bit 

to drill pilot holes for the mounting bracket screws.

1.

Place your C7420 on a desk or use the included mounting bracket to 

mount the C7420.

Ensure that there is a minimum of 1.5 inches of clearance 

on each side of the C/Port, and a minimum ¾–inch 

clearance above the C/Port.

To prevent overheating, do not stand the C/Port on either 

of its sides, and do not cover any ventilation holes.

When using the C7420 mounting bracket to mount the

C/Port under a desk, use the holes on the top of the bracket 

as a hole pattern to drill holes. Ensure that the bracket is 

inset 1.5 inches from the front of the desk.

2.

Connect the following to the C7420:

USB keyboard and pointing device using the USB ports on 

the front or the rear of the C7420.

LC fiber optic cable to the LC jack on the rear of the C7420.

Monitor cable to each DVI-I port on the rear of the C7420. 

Power adapter supplied with the C7420
