Tapping an Ethernet or Fibre Channel connection

Chapter 2 Installing Your GigaStor

rev. 1

Tapping an Ethernet or Fibre Channel connection

This section describes how to connect the cables for these

environments:

Q “10/100/1000, 10GbE Optical, and Fibre Channel” on

page 37

Q “Gigabit copper” on page 40

10/100/1000, 10GbE Optical, and Fibre Channel

The optical Ethernet kit includes:

Q Optical TAP

Q One, two, or four full duplex optical cables depending on

which Gen2 card you purchased.

Q One, two, or four optical Y-analyzer cables

To connect the TAP to the GigaStor:

1 Insert the supplied SFP connectors (XPF connectors for 10GbE)

into the open slots on the back of the Gen2 card(s).

2 If you have a GigaStor Expandable, see “Connecting the GigaStor

Expandable to the expansion units” on page 52 for details about

connecting the expansion units. After connecting them, continue

with step 3.

3 Connect the TX Data Circuit-terminating Equipment (DCE) or

SAN port to the Link A port on the nTAP.

4 Connect the TX port on the Gigabit switch (DCE) or Fibre

Channel Fabric to the Link B port on the nTAP.

5 Use the Y-analyzer cable to connect the nTAP to the Gen2

capture card in the GigaStor. If you have more than one nTAP,

repeat for each additional nTAP.
