Ultra160 I/O Repeater Module

CAUTION:

When using the double-stacked VHDCI connectors (Port A-1 & A-2)

simultaneously, offset VHDCI cable connectors must be used for proper

fit. Failure to use proper cables may result in damage to the I/O repeater

module VHDCI connectors!

VHDCI connectors are easily damaged by improper handling. Visually

inspect each connector for bent contacts and carefully align prior to

insertion.

NOTES:

The InfoStation 9-bay supports daisy-chaining for Ultra160 applications

only.

Port-A1 and Port-A2 are connected internally.

Port-A requires an external terminator if:

1. It is connected to the end of an external SCSI cable.

2. It is "open" and not in use. In this case, only Port B is used.

Port-B does not require a terminator (it is terminated internally).

I/O Repeater Module LEDs

Error LED (Amber) -

Flashing indicates a detection in either:

1. Over temperature

2. Low termination voltage

3. Invalid differential voltage

Activity LED (Green) - ON indicates that activity is present.

OFF indicates that there is no activity present.

Refer to the UIM or InfoMon for detailed information on I/O repeater module status.
