In the Interoperability matrix document, click the Transceivers link.
Attention: mSFP transceivers are compatible only with the FC8-64 port blade.
While they will fit in other blades, this configuration is unsupported and will
generate an error.
The ports are color-coded to indicate which can be used in the same port group for
trunking (trunking port groups can be up to eight ports). The ports and cables
used in trunking groups must meet specific requirements. Refer to the
Fabric OS
Administrator’s Guide for more information.
1.
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.
2. 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.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 for the remaining ports.
4.
Organize the cables as required. For recommendations regarding cable
management, refer to “Managing cables.”
5. Verify the SAN768B and port status using the switchShow command.
6. Verify fabric connectivity using the fabricShow command.
Note: The chassis door must be installed to ensure the SAN768B meets EMI and
other regulatory certifications. Once all transceivers and cables are attached
and arranged, and configuration is complete, reinstall the chassis door. See
“Removing and installing the chassis door” on page 69.
Managing cables
Attention: The minimum bend radius should be no smaller than 10x the cable
radius.
Note: Contact your IBM representative for options regarding different cable and
patch panel configurations to simplify cable management with higher
density FC8-64 port blades.
A horizontal cable management finger assembly (shown in Figure 30 on page 71) is
attached to the chassis under the chassis door and allows for simple cable
management.
Cable management recommendations:
v Leave at least 1 m (3.28 ft) of slack for each port cable. This provides room to
remove and replace blades in the chassis, allows for inadvertent movement of
the rack, and helps prevent the cables from being bent to less than the minimum
bend radius.
