Blade Port numbering Trunking port groups
FX8-24 blade Ports are numbered in groups:
• The FC ports are numbered from 0
through 11 in two vertical columns of six
ports starting from the bottom left and
bottom right in the lower group of 12
ports. They are labeled FC on the front
panel diagram.
• The two 10-GbE ports are 0 and 1 and
are in the left column just above the FC
ports. They are labeled 10GE on the
front panel diagram.
• The 1-GbE ports are numbered 0
through 9 and are in both columns above
the FC and 10GE ports. They are labeled
GE on the front panel diagram.
Up to three FC trunking groups are permitted.
The three groups are defined as follows:
• Trunk group 0: FC ports 0, 1
• Trunk group 1: FC ports 6, 7
• Trunk group 2: FC ports 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 9, 10,
11
Chassis slots
Chassis slots are numbered 1 through 12, from left to right when facing the port side of the Brocade
DCX 8510-8. Control processor blades (CP8) can be installed only in slots 6 and 7. Core switch blades
(CR16-8) can be installed only in slots 5 and 8. The rest of the slots, 1-4 and 9-12, can be filled with
port, application, or encryption blades. Unused slots must be filled with blade filler panels to maintain
adequate cooling.
Cable management
The cable management comb ( Port side of the Brocade DCX 8510-8 on page 15) is attached to the
chassis under the chassis door and allows for simple cable management. The comb can be installed
without service disruption.
NOTE
The minimum radius to which a 50 micron cable can be bent under full tensile load is 5.1 cm (2 in.). For
a cable under no tensile load, that minimum is 3.0 cm (1.2 in.).
Cables can be organized and managed in a variety of ways, for example, using cable channels on the
sides of the cabinet or patch panels to minimize cable management. Following is a list of
recommendations:
NOTE
You should not use tie wraps with optical cables because they are easily overtightened and can
damage the optic fibers.
