System Installation with ContentServer 3000 Series Connecting the ContentDirectors IMPORTANT: Ports 1-4 on switch modules C and D are reserved for ContentDirector private interface (ports 2 and 3) connections only. 1. To connect the ContentDirectors: Connect the ContentDirector private interfaces (ports 2 and 3) to the switch as follows: a. Connect port 2 on the first ContentDirector to port 1 on switch module D. b. Connect port 3 on the first ContentDirector to port 1 on switch module C. 2. Connect the ContentDirector public interfaces (ports 1 and 0) to the switch as follows: a. Connect port 1 on the first ContentDirector to port 5 on switch module C. b. Connect port 0 on the first ContentDirector to port 5 on switch module D. 3. Continue connecting any remaining ContentDirectors in the same manner, starting with port 2 on the switch for the private interfaces and port 6 on the switch for the public interfaces. Connecting the SystemManager To connect the SystemManager: Connect port 1 on the SystemManager to port 8 on switch module D. IMPORTANT: Make sure to leave a space for the SystemManager keyboard/monitor tray. It is recommended that you mount the keyboard monitor and tray 71.12 cm (28.0 in.) off the floor. This height is ideal for using the SystemManager while seated or standing. Connecting the ContentServers Complete these connections after connecting all ContentDirectors. To connect the ContentServers: 1. From the left-hand controller, connect NIC 0 to an open port on 1 GbE switch module C. This will serve as the BMC connection for this controller 2. Connect port 4 on the left-hand controller to an open port on 10 GbE switch module A. Then, connect port 5 on the left-hand controller to an open port on 10 GbE switch module A. 3. From the right-hand controller, connect NIC 0 to an open port on 1 GbE switch module D. This will serve as the BMC connection for this controller. 4. Connect port 4 on the right-hand controller to an open port on 10 GbE switch module B. Then, connect port 5 on the right-hand controller to an open port on 10 GbE switch module B. IMPORTANT: To ensure redundancy and proper failover in the event of a failure, you must connect each controller to a separate switch or switch module. 5. Continue connecting the remaining ContentServers in the same manner. 42 Installation and Configuration Guide

Connecting the ContentBridge System Installation with ContentServer 3000 Series Complete these connections if an optional ContentBridge 2010B/2010C is part of the Omneon MediaGrid system. To connect the ContentBridge: 1. Connect the 10 Gigabit Ethernet port on first ContentBridge to the first available port on either switch module A or B. 2. Continue connecting any remaining ContentBridges in the same manner. Connecting to the Client Network Depending on the type of client connection (CX4 or fiber optic), connect all module A and module cables on the network switch to the client network. Group the connections as shown in Figure 17. Connecting an Omneon MediaGrid System to a Network Switch with 1GbE Connections This section provides instructions for connecting an Omneon MediaGrid system to a network switch with all 1GbE connections. Refer to Figure 18 when connecting the system. Not all connections are shown. NOTE: The switch shown in Figure 18 is provided as an example only. Your switch may vary from the one shown. IMPORTANT: If you are supplying your own network switches, make sure to use only MediaGrid-qualified switches in your MediaGrid system. To find out if a switch is MediaGrid-qualified, contact your Harmonic representative. See the instructions following the illustration for each device’s specific port connections.
