Connect Power
AC Power
Install one or two AC PSUs and connect them to an AC power source.
Make Network Connections
QSFP-DD Ports
- Install transceivers and then connect fiber optic cabling to the transceiver ports.
- Alternatively, connect DAC or AOC cables directly to the QSFP-DD slots.
Connect Timing Ports
1PPS and 10 MHz Ports
Use coax cables to connect the 1-pulse-per-second (1PPS) and 10 MHz IN/OUT ports to other synchronized devices.
ToD Port
Use a shielded cable to connect the Time-of-Day (ToD) port to other devices that use ToD synchronization signals.
Make Management Connections
- 10/100/1000M RJ-45 Management Port Connect Cat. 5e or better twisted-pair cable.
- 10G SFP+ Management Ports
- Install transceivers and then connect fiber optic cabling to the transceiver ports.
RJ-45 Console Port
Connect the included console cable and then configure the serial connection: 115200 bps, 8 characters, no parity, one stop bit, 8 data bits, and no flow control.
