Two-port 10-Gb/s optical or active Twinax Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) I/O module
The two-port 10-Gb/s optical or active Twinax
12
FCoE I/O module comes with two
FCoE ports, one power/fault LED, and a link and activity LED for each port, as
shown in
. The ports on this I/O module can interface at speeds up to 10
Gb/s for Fibre Channel over Ethernet networks. The two-port 10-Gb/s FCoE I/O
module uses the SFP transceiver module. The two-port 10-Gb/s FCoE I/O module
uses FCoE protocol, hence the required SFP+ transceiver module uses a different part
number (for part number, see the
VNX5300 Parts Guide
).

12. The FCoE I/O module can also use active twinaxial (Twinax) cables. Twinax is a type of cable
similar to coax, but with two inner conductors instead of one. These cables will be supplied
in lieu of the SFP+ when so ordered.
