INTIP14

Use this procedure to isolate problems with station protectors.

About this task

Station protectors must be installed on all twinaxial cables that leave the building in which the server is located. This applies even if the cables go underground, through a tunnel, through a covered outside hallway, or through a skyway. Station protectors help prevent electrical noise on these cables from affecting the server.

Procedure

  1. Look at the Product Activity Log to determine what workstations are associated with the failure.
  2. Determine if station protectors are installed on the twinaxial cables to the failing workstations.

    Are station protectors installed on the twinaxial cables to the failing workstations?

    • Yes: Perform the next intermittent isolation procedure listed in the Isolation procedure column. This ends the procedure.
    • No: You may need to install station protectors on the twinaxial cables to the failing workstations. This ends the procedure.
