INSTALLATION
Connecting Cables
When dual LANIs are used in both Slot 00 and 03 of CPR#0/CPR#1, be sure to use at least two
HUB cards as separate 10 BASE-T connection terminals. Use one HUB for the internal LANI
(LANI-A: in Slot 00 of each CPR) and use the other for the external LANI (LANI-B in Slot 03 of
each CPR).
2. When the HUB is in a dual configuration, connect the 10 BASE-T cross cable between the HUB
cards. Use the following cables, which are provided by the user.
UTP CTG5 CRS CA-F:When the HUB and HUB are in the same PIM
UTP CTG5 CRS CA-O:When the HUB and HUB are in different PIMs but in the same IMG
UTP CTG5 CRS CA-X:When the HUB and HUB are in different IMG stacks
When using more than two HUB cards, also connect the cross cable(s) for the remaining HUB
card(s), except the HUB for the MAT connection.
This step is not necessary when your system uses dual LANIs for CPU#0/CPU#1 and FCH is also
in a dual configuration.
3. Connect the 10 BASE-T straight cable(s) between the HUB and FCH (PA-FCHA) cards. Use the
following cable, which must be provided by the user.
UTP CTG5 ST CA-F: When the HUB and FCH are in the same PIM
UTP CTG5 ST CA-O: When the HUB and FCH are in different PIMs but in the same IMG
UTP CTG5 ST CA-X: When the HUB and FCH are in different IMG stacks
When FCH is in a dual configuration, connect FCH#0 to the HUB#0 side, and FCH#1 to the HUB#1
side.
4.3.5 Procedure for IMX-U System
When your system is the IMX-U type (configured to a maximum of 4 Local Nodes + 1ISW), the pro-
cedure for the 10 BASE-T connection is as follows. Because this system already has a Fusion Link via
the HUB (PA-M96) cards, this section gives details related only to the connection between the HUB and
FCH (PA-FCHA) cards.
1. Refer to the NEAX2400 IMX Installation Manual (IMX-U Type) to make sure that the necessary
10 BASE-T (both straight and cross) connections between the ISW and each LN (Local Node) are
all securely provided.
2. Connect the 10 BASE-T straight cable(s) between the HUB (PA-M96) and FCH (PA-FCHA) cards.
Use the following cable, which must be provided by the user.
UTP CTG5 ST CA-F: When the HUB and FCH are in the same PIM
UTP CTG5 ST CA-O:When the HUB and FCH are in different PIMs but in the same IMG
UTP CTG5 ST CA-X:When the HUB and FCH are in different IMG stacks but in the same LN
UTP CTG5 ST CA-A0:When the HUB and FCH are in different LNs
