P-Switch to NonStop S-Series I/O Enclosure Cabling
up to 24 NonStop S-series I/O enclosures can be connected to an Integrity NonStop
NS-series system via these ServerNet links.
A single fiber-optic cable provides the ServerNet link between an I/O PIC port on both
the X and Y p-switch and the I/O multifunction 2 (IOMF 2) CRUs in a NonStop S-series
I/O enclosure. For cable types and lengths, see Internal Cables on page 2-24.
The cables from the two IOMF 2 CRUs must connect to PICs residing in the same slot
number in both the X and Y p-switch and to the same port number on each PIC. For
example, the illustration shows the cables from the NonStop S-series IOMF 2 CRUS
connected to port 1 of the PICs in slot 4 of the X and Y p-switch, assigning the group
number of 11:
