Step 3. Mount the Router
Mount the SANbox 6142 using the shelf, if purchased.
Step 4. Install the SFPs
An SFP transceiver is required for each of the router’s FC ports that will be connected to a Fibre Channel device or switch.
SFPs are included in the package.
To install an SFP transceiver, insert the transceiver into the router port and press gently until it snaps in place. The
transceiver will fit only one way. If the transceiver does not install under gentle pressure, flip it over and try again.
Step 5. Apply Power to the SANbox 6142 Router
Figure 3 shows the location of the ports and LEDs on the SANbox 6142 Router.
Figure 3. SANbox 6142 Ports and LEDs
Attach the AC power cord to the SANbox 6142 Router and then to the wall outlet or power strip. Verify that the router’s
input power LED is illuminated. The Router first runs its self-test, which takes about one minute, then begins normal
operation. Verify that the heartbeat LED is blinking (once per second) and that the system fault LED is not illuminated.
