Installing the Hardware
Caution: Inserting a GBIC without a Fibre Channel device or
hub attached will cause an open loop condition. This open
loop condition will prevent devices attached to the internal
HSSDC connector from functioning. To avoid this situation,
avoid inserting the GBIC until external Fibre Channel
devices are attached to the GBIC.
Installing the GBIC
■ Select the type of GBIC module that is compatible with your
cable’s connector.
■ Install the GBIC into the receptacle on the adapter.
Note: You can only install the GBIC one way, as the GBIC
and guide rails inside the adapter receptacle are keyed.
