Chapter 1 Installing the MediaNetwork Windows Fibre Channel Client Hardware
22
To connect a Windows client to the LANserver EX:
1. Locate the optical cable. Look for a cable with a dual plug on the end (see
“Attaching an Optical Cable to the LANserver EX” on page 22).
2. Make sure the cable has an LC (small) optical connector to match the
connector on the adapter board in the LANserver EX. If the connector is
not the correct one, contact your optical cable installer to arrange for them
to change the connector.
3. Remove the protective covers from the optical connector on the optical
cable.
4. Remove the protective cover from the Fibre Channel adapter board in the
LANserver EX.
5. Plug the optical cable connector into the adapter board connector. The
cable connector and the adapter board connector are keyed and fit together
only one way. You should hear a click when the cable is properly seated.
c
Do not force the optical cable connector into the adapter board connector.
There should be no resistance as you put them together. If the cable
connector does not fit into the adapter board connector, turn the cable
connector 180 degrees and try to insert it again.
