May 2003 Installing the 201i server in a large Meridian 1 system
Part 2: 201i Server Hardware Installation 51
Removing the backplane (tip and ring)
cables
Introduction
You must remove the Meridian 1 backplane (tip and ring) cables that are
associated with the slots occupied by the 201i server so that you can install
the following cables:
NTRH3501 backplane (tip and ring) cable
The NTRH3501 cable offers more network throughput than the cable
that is already installed on the Meridian 1. This cable is connected to the
backplane connectors and I/O panel slot associated with the left slot.
NTRH1408 intermediate SCSI cable
The NTRH1408 intermediate SCSI cable routes the SCSI device
connection away from the 201i server faceplate so that an external SCSI
device can remain permanently connected. This cable is connected to the
I/O panel only. The backplane connectors associated with the right slot
are left vacant.
These cables are supplied with the 201i server.
Before you begin
Note: For information about slot and rear bulkhead wiring and powering off
the shelf, refer to the Meridian 1 System Installation and Maintenance
Guide (NTP 553-3001-210).

DANGER

backplane cables.
