6. Attach the other end of the optical cable to the MEDIASwitch as

described in “Connecting Cables to the MEDIASwitch” on page 20.

Connecting Cables to the MEDIASwitch

The MEDIASwitch connects the Trilligent Cluster or MediaNetwork

workgroup to several Media Servers. The switch allows the Media Servers

to use the storage simultaneously. The switch prevents work interruptions

by allowing other clients in the workgroup to continue working if one or

more clients goes offline.

Avid supports two types of MEDIASwitches: 1-Gb MEDIASwitches and

2-Gb MEDIASwitches. The 1-Gb MEDIASwitch uses optical GBIC

connectors to connect the cables to the switch. The 2-Gb MEDIASwitch

uses SFP connectors to connect the cables to the switch.
