1.1 Place the FibreBridge on a stable flat
surface, install it into a standard rack or
into your device.If installing the
FibreBridge 6500 into a rack, see Exhibit
1 and follow these instructions:
a. Attach “L” brackets so that the front
side with the LEDs face front and the
connector side is at the back.
b. Install the FibreBridge horizontally
within the rack so it does not reduce the
air flow within the rack.
1.2 Connect and power up Fibre Channel
devices from your SAN to the FibreBridge
using SFPs and multimode fiber optic
cables for the Fibre Channel ports. Keep
cable lengths as short as possible to
ensure the highest signal quality and
performance. Refer to Cabling in the
FibreBridge Installation and Operation
Manual.
1.3 Connect and power up SAS/SATA target
devices. Refer to Cabling in the
FibreBridge Installation and Operation
Manual.
1.4 Connect the Ethernet port to your
network.
1.5 Connect power:
a. Connect the AC power cord(s) from
the FibreBridge to the proper AC
source outlet and turn on the power
using the power switch on each
receptacle.
Note
The power source must be connected to a protective
earth ground and comply with local electrical codes.
Improper grounding may result in an electrical shock
or damage to the unit.
If you are using a rack:
a. Properly ground the FibreBridge to the
rack equipment. The earth ground
connection must be maintained.
