Panel
There are four 2-Gb Fibre Channel (FC) ports which provide the
connectivity from the host system FC HBAs to the RAID appliance
host channels. Each port has an FC link LED to indicate a valid FC
loop connection. These LEDs are marked with Tx and Rx.
Note:
The SFP transceivers are available in copper and
optical models. Be sure you have the correct transceiver for
your connectivity to your host HBA.
