Ok, I removed the second cable and just have the 2 top connectors plugged. Now getting 2GHs as expected.
No. You should split the cables (the slide apart) and use ONLY one cable. Connect that single cable from the top-left to the top right (If you use the left controller). That's it. You only use the bottom ports or more than one cable if you serialize multiple units. Baikal can provide you with a PDF of the correct setup.
In short. They provide more controllers and cables than you need for single unit setup. You should only use the controller that was attached when the unit was delivered, the other one is spare. Use only one cable running from the top port of the 'controller side' to the top of the slave side.
If I make it to my office today I'll send you a picture of a correct single unit setup.
Ok, ill try that when I get home tonight.In short. They provide more controllers and cables than you need for single unit setup.

1) Split apart the supplied cable into 2 cables.
2) Only use 1 instead of both sets of connectors, going from TOP to TOP.
Correct?
Correct. And yank out that second controller unit you mounted on the second board. You should only run ONE controller/network to the unit, no reason to use both and it would unnecessarily require you to run dual network and treat each board as a separate unit.

my bad
Your cables are wrong. Go to http://www.baikalminer.com/ and click products then look at that picture.
Pix of the setup below. The data cable is keyed so only fits 1 way. All 4 of the red/blue lights blink.
I own 'more than one'.
Checklist:
- Connect all 4 PCIE and provide at least 150w of power on all rails (Any PSU with 4x PCIE and over 600w should do)
- Make sure the Orange PI works. You should have received one mounted and possibly one lose in the packaging.
- Reboot (doh)
- Post a picture of your setup and I'll try to help if possible
Mine all run about 2-5% over advertised. Yours is running on a single board (1/2). Seems fairly obvious that if you checked power and cables you have: 1. A faulty board or PI OR 2. You have not connected or have a faulty data connector between the boards. The white split cable should connect from the top-port of the 'first' controller side to the top of the other. If you serialize them you run top-top, bot-bot, top-top.

Just bought a Giant Plus, but only 1/2 seems to be working.
Already checked cabling and power...
