Repositioning the secondary backplane
connector
Introduction
The secondary backplane (DS30X) connector on the 201i server connects
the server to the second slot on the IPE shelf, thereby providing access to the
voice channels provided by that slot.
Why you must move the connector
There is an approximate difference of 2 mm between slots on a Meridian 1
tiered system and an Option 11C or Option 11C Mini system. As a result,
you must install the secondary backplane (DS30X) connector on the 201i
server in the correct position before a successful connection with the switch
backplane can be established.
.
CAUTION
Risk of equipment damage
The 201i server ships ready for installation into an Option
11C or Option 11C Mini switch. Before you install the
201i server in a larger Meridian 1 switch (for example,
Option 51C), you must move the secondary backplane
(DS30X) connector to the correct position.
ATTENTION
A yellow warning label over the top lock latch on the
201i server prevents you from securing the 201i server
in a slot. This label serves as a reminder to move the
secondary backplane connector to the Meridian 1
position, if required, before installing the 201i server
into the slot.
