CHAPTER

Product Description

This chapter describes the Sun StorEdge FC-100 Hub and Gigabit Interface Converters (GBICs).
1.1 Sun StorEdge FC-100 Hub
The hub is a seven-port connection point for Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loops (FC-ALs). Ports are connected using GBICs. Each port receives serial data from a remote node and retransmits that data out the next port to the next node in the loop. Each reception includes data regeneration (both signal timing and amplitude) supporting full distance optical links.
The GBIC is compliant with the Gigabit Interface Converter specification and can be hot-plugged into the hub. Removal of a GBIC from the hub causes the automatic bypass of that port. Active ports continue to operate normally with no degradation of system performance. Conversely, a GBIC plugged in the hub connected with a fiber optic cable to an active node automatically becomes a node on the loop.
Missing or inoperative nodes are detected and bypassed by the hub. Data is automatically routed to the next operational port and node in the loop. LED indicators provide status information to service personnel to indicate whether the port is active or bypassed.
The following conditions will cause the bypass of a port:
Converter transmitter fault
Loss of received signal amplitude
Absence of a GBIC
Off-frequency data, excessive jitter, or inadequate edge transition density
1-1
Data transfer within the hub is implemented in serial differential Positive Emitter Coupled Logic (PECL) AC coupled logic. Each port monitors the serial data input stream as well as the media converter connected to it.
Initiators or targets on the loop represent individual nodes that are linked by the shared Fibre Channel loop. The positioning of the initiators or targets on the loop depends upon the requirements of your application.
The front and rear of the hub are shown in

2.3.5 Installing GBICs and Fiber Optic Cables

1. Choose the hub port into which you will install the GBIC.

Although the ports in a hub are electrically equivalent, follow any configuration guidelines that may have accompanied the other hardware in your configuration.
If you are connecting the GBIC to a Sun StorEdge A5000 Disk Array , refer to the Sun StorEdge A5000 Disk Array Hardware Configuration Guide, part number 805-0264-xx .

2. Insert the GBIC into the port.

Sun currently ships two types of GBICs: one with a bailed locking mechanism and one without.
GBICs are keyed to prevent improper insertion; they can only be installed as shown in
FIGURE 2-3 and FIGURE 2-4.
Caution – Forcing a GBIC into a port can damage the GBIC and/or port. Use
minimal pressure when inserting the GBIC.
To insert a GBIC that does not have a bail, slide the GBIC into the available port
until you hear a click.

Fiber optic cable connectors are keyed to prevent improper insertion; they can only be installed as shown in
FIGURE 2-3 and FIGURE 2-4.

4. Route the fiber optic cable to an initiator or target.

Refer to the documentation that came with the device.

5. Connect the fiber optic cable to a GBIC in the initiator or target.

Refer to the documentation that came with the device.

2.3.6 Routing the Power Cord

If you are installing the hub along with Sun StorEdge A5000 Disk Arrays in a Sun StorEdge Expansion Cabinet, refer to the Sun StorEdge A5000 Disk Array Hardware Configuration Guide, part number 805-0264-12 (or later), for cable routing.
2-6 Sun StorEdge FC-100 Hub Installation and Service Manual • September 1998
1. Connect the female end of the power cord to the power receptacle at the rear of the hub (
FIGURE 1-1 on page 1-2).

2. Route the power cord down the right side and along the bottom of the cabinet.

3. Route the power cord up through the cutout to the power distribution unit at the left side of the cabinet.
Caution – The power distribution unit serves as the primary disconnect device for
the hub. Do not connect the hub into a power source other than the power distribution unit. Personal injury can result if you work on a hub that is connected into another power source, since that power source may still be active when you work on the hub.

4. Connect the power cord for the tray to the power distribution unit.

If your power distribution unit has a sequencer, connect the first hub to one of the four lower outlets. Connect the second hub to one of the four upper outlets.

5. Tuck the extra length of the power cord down into the pocket beneath the power distribution unit.

2.3.7 Verifying the Configuration

1. Power on all nodes and then the hub.

Note – Refer to the handbook that came with your peripheral and your system
installation manual for instructions on safely powering on the cabinet.

2. Make sure that the Device Active LEDs are lit for active hub ports.

The Bypass LEDs for active ports should be off. See Section 2.4, “Troubleshooting” if:
The Device Active LED for an active port is flashing
The Bypass LED for an active port is on
The Device Active LED for an active port is off
The FC-AL should now be operational.
Chapter 2 Installation 2-7

2.3.8 Reassembling the Cabinet

Follow the instructions in your system or expansion cabinet documentation. If necessary, be sure to:
Replace or close the top front panel
Replace or close the rear panel
Push the antitilt bar back into the cabinet

2.4 Troubleshooting

If a GBIC is properly installed, the Device Active LED for the GBIC should be on and the Bypass LED should be off.
If the Device Active LED for a GBIC is flashing, replace the GBIC. If a GBIC is installed and the Device Active LED for the GBIC is off and the Bypass
LED is on, see
TABLE2-1 Troubleshooting
Possible Cause Solution
Module not properly inserted Remove and reinsert the GBIC. Diminished or missing signal from node Plug the optical cable from the other device
Bad hub port Move the GBIC to a known good port on
Faulty GBIC Replace the GBIC.
