Task 2: Route the Fiber-Optic Cables for the Four-
Lane Links
Task 2: Route the Fiber-Optic Cables for the Four-Lane Links
The following tasks assume that you have routed (but not connected) the single-mode
fiber-optic cables to be used for the four-lane links. Do not connect the four-lane links
until you are instructed to do so by the guided procedure. If you have not already
routed the cables, use the following steps:
1. Label both ends of each fiber-optic cable to be used for the four-lane links. On the
label, include the fabric and cluster switch position (X1, for example) and the port
number (8, for example) to which the cable will be connected.
2. If they are not already routed, route the fiber-optic ServerNet cables to be used for
the four-lane links. For more information, refer to Section 2, Planning for
Installation.
Task 3: Install the Two Star Groups of the Split-Star Topology
Use the procedure for Installing a ServerNet Cluster Using a Star Topology on
