Part 2: 201i Server Hardware Installation 39
Meridian 1 I/O panel connections
On large Meridian 1 systems (such as Option 51C), the 201i server requires
two connections from the IPE slots to the I/O panel on the rear of the switch,
as follows:
One connection is for the multi I/O cable.
This connection corresponds to the left slot (when viewing the front of
the Meridian 1 switch).
The other connection is for the external SCSI device.
This connection corresponds to the right slot (when viewing the front of
the Meridian 1 switch).
For information about slot and rear bulkhead wiring, refer to the Meridian 1
System Installation and Maintenance Guide (NTP 553-3001-210).
CLAN and ELAN network requirements
If you have a LAN (for example, customer LAN [CLAN] or embedded
LAN [ELAN]), the LAN must be configured and the appropriate
networking equipment must be available.
If the LAN is to be networked with the 201i server, you need a network
specialist to ensure proper configuration.
ATTENTION
For important considerations about using the ELAN in
your network, see About the ELAN in Part 1 of the
CallPilot Installation and Configuration binder.
