General Description
CAUTION:
Remove ALL power from the InfoStation before installing the Dual RAID
Controller Module unit. The RAID Controller Module contains NO USER
SERVICEABLE PARTS. Warranty is VOID if module is opened. Refer ALL
servicing to qualified personnel!
DO NOT bend the LC (optical) cable beyond the cable's minimum bend
radius, data transmission degradation may occur. Follow cable manufac-
turer's guidelines for bend radius limitation.
VHDCI connectors are easily damaged by improper handling. Visually
inspect each connector for bent contacts and carefully align prior to
insertion.
WARNING:
Danger of explosion if the RAID battery is incorrectly replaced! Replace
only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer.
Dispose of used batteries according to manufacturer's instructions.
DO NOT look directly into the open end of an active LC (optical) cable or
optical SFP module (with plugs removed)! Serious eye damage can occur
from direct exposure to the infrared light!
NOTES:
The installation, configuration, and use of the Fibre-to-SCSI Dual RAID
Controller Module option requires a certain level of expertise and experi-
ence on the part of the user/integrator. Since there are many configuration
options and variables (ie. host platforms, applications, etc.), only general
guidelines will be discussed in this User's Guide.
HSSDC2 (copper) SFP modules support 1Gbps operation only.
LC (optical) SFP modules support both 2Gbps and 1Gbps operation.
FC-to-SCSI RAID Controller Module will only work with InfoStation UI F/W
Rev. 2.0.11 or higher.
Refer to both the InfoStation User's Guide and Installation Guide for
additional operating and installation information. Also refer to the disk
manufacturer's documentation for specific information regarding the
disks.
The StorCase Technology 2Gbps Fibre Channel-to-SCSI Ultra160 (FC-to-SCSI) Dual
RAID Controller Module option (P/N S10C104) is specifically designed for the InfoStation
external expansion chassis. The FC-to-SCSI Dual RAID Controller Module (Figure 1) is a dual
Fibre Channel host port controller with four (4) SCSI disk channels (supporting 2x4 configu-
rations).
