module, the internal switch ports will operate at 1Gb speeds.

To maximize the number of adapter ports usable, you may also need to order switch upgrades to enable

additional ports as listed in the table. Alternatively, for CN4093, EN4093R, and SI4093 switches, you can

use Flexible Port Mapping, a new feature of Networking OS 7.8, that allows you to minimize the number of

upgrades needed. See the Product Guides for the switches for more details:

http://lenovopress.com/flexsystem/iomodules

The table also specifies how many ports of the adapter are supported once the indicated upgrades are

applied. Switches should be installed in pairs to maximize the number of ports enabled and to provide

redundant network connections.
