Notes on Connecting the Disk Array Unit
Confirm the following items before attempting to connect the disk array unit:
Connection cable
Use the provided power cord to connect the disk array unit to the power supply.
To connect the host bus adapter of the host system or the FC-AL switch to the
disk array unit, be sure to use the FC cable specified by the manufacturer.
To connect the disk array unit to an additional disk enclosure, be sure to use the
DE cable provided with the additional disk enclosure, or the DE cable specified
by the manufacturer.
Cable length limit
FC optical cable for operating the host interface at 1Gbps: Up to 500 m
FC optical cable for operating the host interface at 2Gbps: Up to 300 m
Topology and data transfer rate settings
Factory-set topology and data transfer rate are as follows:
Topology: FC-AL
Data transfer rate: 2Gbps
The topology and data transfer rate must be set correctly in accordance with the
host bus adapter to be connected or the connection mode of the FC-AL switch.
You can change the topology and data transfer rate of the FC connector for the
host bus adapter by operating the DIP switches located on the controller.
For details, see
