Rear Panel - HP StorageWorks Edge Switch 2/12 Installation Manual

• Ethernet LAN interface, causing the connection to the HAFM Basic interface to drop
momentarily until the connection automatically recovers.
• Ports, causing all Fibre Channel connections to drop momentarily until the connections
automatically recover.
An IML should be performed only if a CTP failure is indicated. Do not perform an IML on the
Edge Switch unless directed to do so by a procedural step in this manual or by the next level of
support. As a precaution, the IML button is flush mounted to protect against accidental
activation.
• SFP fiber-optic connectors
A single-mode or multimode fiber-optic cable attaches to a port through an SFP transceiver. The
SFP transciever provides a duplex LC interface and can be detached from the Edge Switch port
for easy replacement. Two fiber-optic transceiver types are available:
• Short-wave laser—Short-wave laser SFP transceivers provide short-distance connections (2 to
500 meters) through 50-micron or 62.5-micron multimode fiber.
• Long-wave laser—Long-wave laser SFP transceivers provide long-distance connections (up to
10 kilometers) through 9-micron single-mode fiber.
• Extended long-wave laser—Extended long-wave laser SFP transceivers provide long-distance
connections (up to 35 kilometers) through 9-micron single-mode fiber.
• Port LEDs
Amber and green/blue LEDs to the left of each Fibre Channel port illuminate, extinguish, or
blink to indicate port status and port speed:
• Amber LED illuminates to indicate a port failure.
• Green/blue LED illuminates:
• Green to indicate 1.0625 Gbps port operation
• Blue to indicate 2.125 Gbps port operation
