DXi4701 Cable Drops
Ethernet Cable Drops DXi4701 (3 x 1 GbE ports and optional 2 x 10 GbE ports) - One to
three 1 GbE Ethernet connections and optional one to two 10 GbE
Ethernet connections (optical or Twinax, see below) for NAS or OST
connectivity, replication, and remote management.
Note: For Cisco 5000 Series Data Center Class switches, Quantum
recommends using the approved 5 meter Twinax cable type that is
shipped with the DXi4701 system. Otherwise, Quantum
recommends using optical (SFP+) connectivity.
Note: The 10 GbE Copper (Twinax) cable options that Quantum provides
do not support all switches. Please note the supported switches
during the purchase-configuration process, and if the Twinax
cables supplied by Quantum are not compatible with your switch,
then you will need to provide your own compatible Twinax cables
from your switch vendor. Be sure to have these available before
the system installation takes place.
Fibre Channel Drops (DXi4701 VTL configurations only) 1 to 2 Fibre Channel connections for
data transfer.
