For selected models that come with 10Gbps iSCSI channel host ports. The 10Gbps
host connectivity is achieved by transferring data using iSCSI ports while data signals
are sent through optical cables.
The 10Gbps iSCSI channel standard allows for optical connections only. Optical
cables can be used over longer distances and have been shown to be more reliable.
Due to the demands of high transfer rates, optical cables are preferred for 10Gb iSCSI
connectivity. Optical cables are also less susceptible to EMI.
