Connecting the Two-Lane Links
5. One cable at a time, connect the cable ends. Table 4-24 shows the cable 
connections. 
6. Check the link-alive LED near each PIC port. The link-alive LEDs should light a few 
seconds after the cable is connected at both ends. If the link-alive LEDs do not 
light:
a. Try reconnecting the cable, using care to align the key on the cable plug with 
the PIC connector.
b. Make sure the dust caps are removed from the cable ends.
c. If possible, try connecting a different cable.
7. Continue until all cables on a fabric are connected.
Caution. During an upgrade from a split-star topology to a tri-star topology, you must first 
connect all cables on the X fabric and then wait for the guided procedure to prompt you to 
connect the cables on the Y fabric.
