3.1.2 Connecting SW16 to the ExaSAN storages
1. Connect to the ExaSAN storage (B08S2-PS or A12S2-PS) with a QSFP PCIe cable.
Insert one end of the QSFP cable into the host port on the rear panel of the ExaSAN
storage. Your cable connector is securely plugged when you hear a “click” If you
do not hear or sense a click, please re-insert the QSFP connector. If you need to
unplug the cable, pull the ring on the connector firmly until it is detached from the
port. Note that the QSFP used in the photo illustration below is a QSFP optical cable.
If the distance between the switch and the host system is less than 2 meters in your
case, the included QSFP copper cable will suffice.
