Installing an IO Connection Kit
In the example which follows, an RJ45 kit is installed on IO ports 1/2. Other connection kits are installed in a
similar manner.
The kits should always be assembled in port pairs 1/2, 3/4 and 5/6, starting with 1/2.
Preparation
Each IO connection kit comes as a bundle containing:
·
2 x SFP modules.
·
2 x interconnecting cables (to connect the SFP modules to the connectors).
·
2 x rear panel connectors.
·
Labeling / numbering accessories (to label the cables).
1.
Start by unpacking the kit and assembling the components.
Each cable should be fitted with an SFP module on one end and rear panel connector on the other.
2.
Use the accessories to label both ends of each cable.
The numbering should match the intended IO ports. So, cable 1 for IO port 1, cable 2 for IO port 2, and so on.
A fully assembled kit should look as shown.
