The four cabling diagrams on the next pages illustrate the default configuration and connections
for a triplex system processor. These diagrams are not for use in installing or cabling the system.
For instructions on connecting the cables, see the NonStop NS16000 Series Hardware Installation
Manual.
NOTE: Individual NonStop Blade Element enclosures might or might not reside in the same
cabinet, depending on the physical configuration of the system. But regardless of which cabinet
houses the NonStop Blade Element, LSU, and p-switch enclosures, the default cable interconnections
between them will be the same as the examples shown in the next four cabling diagrams.
This figure shows example connections to the default configuration of the NonStop Blade Element
reintegration links (NonStop Blade Element connectors S, T, Q, R) and ports 1 to 4 on the p-switch
PIC in slot 10, which defines triplex processor numbers to 0 to 3. Two p-switches are required,
one for the X-fabric and the other for the Y-fabric:
