To connect the VERSAstream
VS1610 kit Multi-link Series aggregator/regenerator,
refer to Figure 26 and follow these steps:
1. Two power supplies are provided. Use of the second power supply is strongly
recommended to assure uninterrupted monitoring. Connect both power supply
barrel connectors into the power 1 and 2 ports, respectively, of the VERSA-
stream
. Plug the power supplies into the external power source, furthermore,
connecting the second power supply to a different external power source circuit
than the first power supply eliminates power as a single point of failure. The
POWER 1 and 2 LEDs illuminate indicating POWER 1 and 2, respectively, are
on. Either LED not illuminated indicates a defective power source and immediate
replacement is required to insure redundant power integrity.
2. Connect network cables to the VERSAstream
NETWORK
RJ45 ports. The
NETWORK
RJ45 Link LED is solid green indicating link has been established between the
respective
NETWORK
port and network device. The LED Display Code table deci-
phers the RJ45 jacks with integrated LEDs that display line status and line speed
of each port. The LED is flashing green when data is passed from the respective
network device to the network port.
3. Connect analysis devices to the VERSAstream
MONITOR
ports. Two DRL494–2m
cables are provided to connect analysis SC ports to the
MONITOR
duplex-LC ports.
The LED associated with each duplex-LC jack indicates when light signal has
been detected on the respective Rx
MONITOR
port. The
MONITOR
RJ45 ports with
integrated LEDs display line status and line speed of each port as deciphered in
the The LED Display Code table. The LED is flashing green when data is passed
from the respective
MONITOR
device to the
MONITOR
port.
4. Two DRL366-1 cables are provided, connect one DRL366-1 cable from the
DAISY OUT
port of one VERSAstream
unit to the
DAISY IN
port of the second
VERSAstream
unit. Connect the other DRL366-1 cable from the
DAISY IN
port
of the first unit to the
DAISY OUT
port of the second unit.
