3. Choose an available port on the rear of your DSR1021 switch. Plug one end
of a CAT 5 cable (4-pair, up to 10 meters) into a numbered port and plug
the other end into the RJ-45 connector of a DSRIQ module.
4. Plug the DSRIQ module into the appropriate ports on the back of the
server. Repeat this procedure for all servers that are to be connected to the
DSR1021 switch.
5. Plug a CAT 5 cable from your Ethernet network into the LAN connector
on the back of your DSR1021 switch. Network users will access the DSR
appliance through this port.
6. (Optional) The DSR1021 switch may also be accessed using a ITU V.92,
V. 90 or V.34-compatible modem. Plug a 9-pin serial cable into the MODEM
connector on the back of your DSR1021 switch. Plug the other end into the
connector on the back of the modem.
NOTE: Using a modem connection instead of a LAN connection will limit the performance
capability of your DSR1021 switch.
7. (Optional) Plug one end of the cable supplied with the SPC power control
device into the SPC connector on the DSR1021 switch and plug the other
end into an SPC device. Plug the power cords from the target servers into
the SPC device power outlets. Plug the SPC device into an appropriate AC
wall outlet.
8. Power up each target server and then power up the DSR1021 switch.
