Step 1 Connect a Category 5 or 6 (Cat 5/6) Ethernet cable to one of the RJ-45 connectors on the SFS 7024.
Connect the other end of the Cat 5/6 to the OOB LAN workstation. Refer to Figure 2-7 for which RJ-45
connector(s) to use:
Step 2 Connect the switch to IB-enabled hosts using 4X-to-4X IB cables.
Note Make sure all cables latch securely into the corresponding port connectors. If the IB cable connector is
not properly oriented to fit onto the port receptacle (i.e., while attempting to insert the cable in the port),
do not twist the connector to achieve the correct orientation. Instead, reach back a few feet on the cable,
and twist the bulk cable to allow the connector to rotate to the proper orientation. Doing this prevents
all of the rotational forces from acting right at the connector terminations.
Caution It is important to provide strain relief for the IB cable connector.
