GbE SFP+ and QSFP ports on extension blades allow connection of blades to IP WANs and allow Fibre
|
|
Channel and IP I/O traffic to pass through the IP WAN through extension tunnels. The following
illustrates a typical SFP+ transceiver that uses a bail latching mechanism to release the transceiver from
|
the blade port cage. A separate fiber optic cable plugs into the transceiver.
