Unlike FC3171 8Gb SAN Switch full-fabric operations, the pass-thru module concentrates multiple compute

nodes into the external ports. The external ports connect to external Fibre Channel switches that support

NPIV. The internal ports connect directly to compute nodes through the chassis backplanes. The pass-thru

module presents one or more compute nodes per port to the fabric. The pass-thru module expands the fabric,

but, unlike a full-fabric switch, it does not count against the fabric domain.

Note: The Pass-thru module cannot be upgraded to a full-fabric switch module.

The part number includes the following items:

One Lenovo Flex System FC3171 8Gb SAN Switch or Pass-thru module
Documentation package

The modules do not include a serial management cable; however, the Flex System Management Serial Access

Cable, 90Y9338, is supported and contains two cables, a mini-USB-to-RJ45 serial cable and a mini-USB-to-

DB9 serial cable, either of which can be used to connect to the switch locally for configuration tasks and

firmware updates.

The switch comes without any SFP+ transceivers, they must be ordered separately to provide outside

connectivity. The following table lists supported SFP+ options and optical cables for them.
