The example above shows the connection of a VSN1190 - VSN1100X. For detailed instructions/information on connecting
multiple expansion chassis, refer to the
EMS
Expansion Chassis User Guide supplied with your expansion chassis.
Connect the HLink-G3 and SLink-G3 using the ExCable-G3 provided.
The correct way to insert the cable is to have the release tab facing away from the card. The rectangular connector needs to be
fully inserted into the card until a definite click can be heard. This locks the cable in place. Failure to lock the connector in place
can result in the ExCable-G3 becoming separated from the card and the link between chassis being lost.
To remove the connector gently pull the ring pull tab to unlock the connector from the card then slide the connector out fully.
Normal copper cable handling precautions should be observed to avoid tight loops or kinks in theExCable-G3.
If more than one expansion chassis is supplied, ensure the cards are paired correctly by connecting the cards labelled “Link1”
together, the pair labelled “link2” together and so on. In the event that this is not possible i.e. the expansion chassis are shipped
separately and the cards are not labelled, connect the cards using the ExCables-G3 provided and re-install the
EMS
Driver
Install package to reset the pairings.
