Fabric Adapters
The Brocade stand-up Fabric Adapters are low-profile MD2 form factor PCI Express (PCIe) cards,
measuring 6.6 in. by 2.731 in. (16.765 cm by 6.93 cm). One and two-port models are available.
Ports support 10 GbE, 8 Gbps FC, or 16 FC small form factor pluggable (SFP+) optics. With the

Fabric Adapters are shipped with a full-height, standard bracket installed, and a low-profile bracket
included for mounting in your host system.
Table 18 lists the two bracket types and dimensions.
