3 Connecting the Array Cables

After you install the array in a rack, you must connect the network and power cables, and optionally, the

serial cable.

First, review the network recommendations in Minimum and Recommended Cable Configurations on page

10.

The following list describes the general steps for connecting the array to power and the network.

1. Connect the power cables. Do not turn on power to the array at this time. See Connect and Secure the

Power Cables on page 11.

2. Connect the array to the network. See Connect the Array to the Network on page 12.

3. Turn on power to the array. See Turning On the Array on page 12.

The following sections describe these steps in detail. After completing the steps, see Software Configuration

on page 17.

Network Requirements and Recommendations

The minimum network configuration for a PS Series array consists of a connection between Ethernet 0 on

each control module and a computer or a network switch. To increase performance and availability,

configure multiple network interfaces on an array and connect them to multiple switches.

Network recommendations are described in Table 3. In addition, all the usual rules for proper network

configuration apply to PS Series arrays. General network configuration is beyond the scope of this manual.
