3 Connect the HSSDC2 connector at the other end of each cable to the connector on each of
the RAID controllers in the Xserve RAID system.
The latch on the cable’s connector should be at the top as you insert it.
Connecting Xserve RAID to a Switch or Hub
You can connect the system to a switch or hub that has fibre channel ports. (See “Xserve
RAID Hardware Connections” on page 79 for an example of this type of connection.)
If you connect the Xserve RAID system to a fibre channel switch or hub, you may supply your
own cables.
1 Verify that the switch or hub is compatible with Xserve RAID.
Check the Xserve website for a list of compatible switches: www.apple.com/xserve.
2 Connect the SFP connectors on both fibre channel cables to the corresponding connectors
on the switch or hub.
