Welcome! How can we help you?

• In the event you need to remove the cable, you can do so by pulling on the blue tab to release the connection. Please do not pull on the cable itself.

• The power button for your system is located on the front of your OWC Jellyfish toward the bottom. When it is on, this button will be illuminated with a bright blue.

1: Serial port

2: USB-A ports - These cannot be used for connection to workstations or external drives.

3: IPMI Port - This a service port and cannot be used for data access.

4 & 5: RJ-45 Ports 1 & 2 - These two built-in ports are 10 GbE. We recommend using CAT 6A or CAT 7 cables to ensure the best performance (cables not included).

6: VGA port - This is a display connector for monitoring boot processes.

7: Power Supply Outlet and Power Switch - This outlet will be used to connect your OWC Jellyfish to power. We strongly recommend using a UPS (uninterrupted power supply). The power switch must be in the on position for the OWC Jellyfish to power on.

NOTE: If you have purchased an expansion unit for your OWC Jellyfish Mobile, you will need to connect them together using your SAS cable in an HBA port. The model above does not show an HBA port. If your OWC Jellyfish Mobile is customized to include one, please refer to page 6 of this manual for detailed information on safe handling of SAS cables and HBA ports.

1. First, connect one of your OWC Jellyfish ports to your switch. OWC Jellyfish ports are always counted from top to bottom and left to right. If you will have multiple users connecting simultaneously over LAN, we recommend using at least a 10GbE port. If you are only using it for an Internet connection, 1GbE should be sufficient.
NOTE: Depending on your use case, you may want to utilize a 1GbE or 10GbE connection for your network connection. Please note that if you choose a 10GbE port, you will need a switch that is 10GbE compatible in order to achieve 10GbE speeds.

2. Be sure you are not using the IPMI port of the OWC Jellyfish as this will not provide access to your data.

3. Once you have connected to the correct port, log into Manager for OWC Jellyfish and go to the Networks page.

4. Select the port you connected to the switch or router.

5. Using the drop-down arrow on the right side of the MTU selection, set the MTU to 1500 if you are using a 1GbE connection, or 9000 if you are using a 10GbE connection.

6. Toggle on DHCP. Check your switch settings to make ensure DHCP is enabled. This may be the default setting.

7. Click the checkmark in the top right corner to save.

8. Exit out of this dialogue box by clicking the “x” in the top left corner.

9. Refresh the page.

10. The OWC Jellyfish port will now have an automatically assigned IP address.

11. Here are the recommended network settings for a 10GbE connection on a Mac. These settings can be found by clicking the Apple logo in the top left of your screen and selecting System Preferences:

• MTU: 9000
• Make sure the box is unticked for AVB.

12. From here, select Network. Select your OWC Jellyfish connection in your list of network connections. Next, click Advanced at the bottom right corner of that dialogue box.

13. Click the Hardware tab on the right side to see your adjustable settings. When you’ve finished any necessary adjustments, click OK to save your changes.

14. Here are the recommended network settings for a 10GbE connection on a Windows:

6. Once you have entered the license info in Manager for OWC Jellyfish, mount a OWC Jellyfish on your workstation, and then launch Kyno.

• In order to enable Media Engine, Kyno for OWC Jellyfish must be activated on at least one workstation. After that, any user who’s been granted Media Engine access can click “Launch” to begin or navigate to jellyfish/media/.

• Media Engine will only show shares and folders for which a user has been granted permissions. From here, your team can utilize this simple tool to maximize efficiency in your workflow.
