Cabling the AX150
Cabling the AX150 is a simple, customer-friendly procedure. Three types of cables are necessary to
configure the AX150 environment:
A 10/100/1000 Ethernet cable for each SP, allowing for storage system management
A power cable to each SP and the UPS (provided)
An SFF optical cable up to 300 m long for server I/O
A serial cable to connect the RJ45 port on the storage system to the UPS, which allows the AX150 to
detect the presence of the UPS
Each SP has a power supply as well as a management port. Use the cable appropriate for your power source
to connect to either a rack power strip or directly to standard AC power outlets. When attaching the UPS to
the storage system, run the provided sense cable between the UPS serial port and the RJ45 port on SP A.
Run a power cable from SP A to the UPS, another from the UPS to the AC power strip, and a third from SP
B to a power strip. Figure 4 on page 11 shows cabling.
