(Optional) Host Cards
The system comes with four on-board 10GbE iSCSI ports on each controller. If you want to
expand the number of host ports, purchase QSAN host cards (optional components) will be the
fastest and most cost-efficiency choice.
There are several types of host cards that are available for selection. You can configure a Fibre
Channel by using QSAN 32/16Gb Fibre Channel host cards; you can choose an iSCSI by using
25/10GbE via SFP28/SFP+ or 10GBASE-T host cards. Following figure is the overview of the host
card installation slots.
