Connecting and Organizing Interface Cables to the SRX210 Services Gateway
You can connect the interfaces installed in the services gateway to various network
media. Each type of interface on the services gateway uses a particular medium to
transmit data. You must configure each network interface before it can operate on
the device.
To connect and organize an interface cable to the device:
1. Have ready a length of the type of cable used by the interface.
2. Insert the cable connector into the cable connector port on the interface faceplate.
3. Arrange network cables as follows to prevent them from dislodging or developing
stress points:
■ Secure cables so that they are not supporting their own weight as they hang
to the floor.
■ Place excess cable out of the way in neatly coiled loops.
■ Use fasteners to maintain the shape of cable loops.
