Follow these steps to add the optical transceivers and cables to the Fibre Channel
ports.
1.
Ensure that both cable and transceiver are clean prior to installation.
2. Position one of the optical transceivers so that the key is oriented correctly to
the port. Insert the transceiver into the port until it is firmly seated and the
latching mechanism clicks.
Transceivers are keyed so that they can only be inserted with the correct
orientation. If a transceiver does not slide in easily, ensure that it is correctly
oriented.
3. Position a cable so that the key (the ridge on one side of the cable connector) is
aligned with the slot in the transceiver; then, insert the cable into the
transceiver until the latching mechanism clicks.
Cables are keyed so that they can only be inserted with the correct orientation.
If a cable does not slide in easily, ensure that it is correctly oriented.
4.
Repeat steps 1 and 2 for the remaining ports.
5. Organize the cables as required. For recommendations regarding cable
management, refer to “Managing cables” on page 46.
6. Verify the chassis and port status using the switchShow command.
7. Verify fabric connectivity using the fabricShow command.
Installing QSFP transceivers and ICL cables
Follow these steps to install the QSFPs and cables in the FC16-64 port blades and
the core blades.
Attention: Even though the installation and removal procedures are the same for
QSFP ports in FC16-64 port blades and the core blades, the physical QSFP
transceivers designed for FC16-64 are not compatible with the QSFP transceivers
designed for the core blades. They are not interchangeable.
In the core blades, these transceivers and cables are used to form the inter-chassis
links (ICL) with neighboring SAN384B-2 and SAN768B-2 backbones. The
transceivers should be installed in the blades before connecting the cables. Because
each QSFP contains four 16-Gbps ports, be aware that any problems with one port
could affect all four ports in the quad if the QSFP has to be replaced.
1.
Position one of the QSFP transceivers so that the key is oriented correctly to the
port. Insert the transceiver into the port until it is firmly seated. Transceivers
are keyed so that they can only be inserted with the correct orientation. If a
transceiver does not slide in easily, ensure that it is correctly oriented. When
the transceiver is correctly seated, the status LED will flash amber several times
and then turn solid amber.
2. Remove the protective cap from the special QSFP cable and insert it into the
transceiver until it is firmly seated. The cables are also keyed to fit into the
transceivers correctly. When the cable is correctly seated, the status LED will
change from amber to green.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 for the remaining QSFP ports.
4.
Organize the cables (see “Managing cables” on page 46).
5. Verify the chassis and connector and port status using the
switchShow -qsfp
command. The example below is from a SAN384B-2 with a core blade installed
in slot 3. Some details for the SAN768B-2 will be different (such as the slot
numbers), but the reported information for the QSFPs will be similar. Note that
the State reported for an unconnected QSFP (shown QSFP 0 and Ports 0-3
