your requirements. In the following illustration, the BNP 2xr+ is
populated with (max) 3 PROC3s, and 1 ASI card.
3Recommended SFPs
Install approved SFPs according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
4Connect the Ports
Use the correct cable for the port type and your network
configuration:
• 10/100BaseT Ethernet port, used to communicate with the
management network.
• ASI ports, located on the rear of the chassis. Use a push/twisting
motion to ensure proper seating of the cables.
• The Gigabit Ethernet ports must have approved SFPs before
cabling.
5Power Up
1. Connect all ports before applying power.
2. Connect power to the chassis:
•For AC power, plug one end of the AC power cable into the
BNP 2xr+ power connector. Plug the other end of the power
cable into the input power source. The unit should now have
power.
•For DC power, cut the DC onnector cables to the correct
length to reach the BNP 2xr+ from the power source, and
attach the connector cables from the power source to the
BNP 2xr+ power connectors. Attach the other end of the
power connector cables into the input power source. Toggle
the external circuit breaker to the ON position. The unit
should now have power.
3. Verify power: at the BNP 2xr+, check to ensure that the Cfg/Pwr
LED is solid green.
Note: If it is necessary to swap out the power supply, you must first
power down the BNP 2xr+, allow the fans to stop spinning, then
replace the power supply.
