• If ISL Trunking is used, group the cables by trunking group. The ports are color-coded to indicate which ports can be used in the same ISL Trunking group: eight ports marked with solid black ovals alternate with eight ports marked with oval outlines. • For easier maintenance, label the fiber optic cables and record the devices to which they are connected. • Route the cables to both the left and right sides of the switch through the cable management fingers. • Route port cables and other cables away from the LEDs to ensure that the LEDs are visible.

The kit increases the number of ports by interconnecting two DC04 SAN Director chassis, or a DC04 SAN Director and a DC SAN Director. The ICL cables and the ICL connectors (see Figure 49) are color-coded and labeled for ease of installation. Connect the ICL cables in one of the configurations shown in Figure 50 and Figure 51. NOTE: Because the blades in the DC04 SAN Director are installed horizontally, the usual top-to-bottom orientation becomes a left-to-right orientation. 1. Connect the cables from the left (top) connectors (ICL 1) of the CR4S-8 blades in the first chassis to the right (bottom) connectors (ICL 0) of the CR4S-8 blades in the second chassis. 140 DC04 SAN Director Installation
