Cabling Up the AirSpeed Multi Stream
83
Connecting Ethernet Cables
All AirSpeed Multi Stream models come equipped with four Ethernet connectors. Although
all four are functional, we currently support the use of two connectors (Ports 1 and 2) in a
redundant configuration.
However, Port 4 is reserved for use for connecting and configuring the AirSpeed Multi
Stream over a network interface.
For more information on connecting and configuring the AirSpeed Multi Stream in this
manner, see
“Connecting to AirSpeed Multi Stream Over the Network” on page 84
These connections are not gangable. Zone 2 configuration is supported.
The illustration shows the rear of the MPEG-2 HD model. The location of the Ethernet
connectors is the same for all models.
If you do not have a redundant DNS configuration, use one connection to your shared
storage using a static IP address.
To connect the Ethernet cable:
t
Connect an Ethernet CAT-5E or CAT-6 cable with a RJ-45 connector from the GigE
connector to a Gigabit (1000BASE-T) Ethernet switch.
