10 GbE Twinax cable
Quantum recommends using the approved 5 meter
Twinax cable type that is shipped with the DXi6900 G2
system. This cable is compatible with Cisco 5000 Series
Data Center Class switches.
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.
