Step 3. Mount the Router
Place the router on a flat surface or mount it in a standard 19-inch Electronic Industries Association (EIA) rack.
Step 4. Install the SFP Transceivers
An SFP transceiver is required for each of the router’s FC ports that will be connected to a Fibre Channel device or switch.
SFPs are included in the package.
To install an SFP transceiver, insert the transceiver into the router port and press gently until it snaps in place. The
transceiver will fit only one way. If the transceiver does not install under gentle pressure, flip it over and try again.
Step 5. Apply Power to the iSR6142 Router

1.
Attach the AC power cord to the iSR6142 Router and then to the wall outlet or power strip.
2.
Verify that the router’s input power LED is illuminated. The iSR6142 Router first runs its self-test, which
takes about one minute, then begins normal operation.
3.
Verify that the heartbeat LED is blinking (once per second) and that the system fault LED is not illuminated.

iSR6142 Intelligent Storage Router Installation Guide.
