and 2858-E26, up to six Network Interface Cards (NICs) per node can be plugged
into the PCI slots to provide additional Ethernet ports.
The integrated Ethernet RJ-45 twisted-pair connectors are compatible with the IEEE
802.3 Ethernet network 10/100/1000 BASE-TX link. When connecting to the
Ethernet port, connect a twisted-pair (CAT-5 or better) cable to the RJ-45 Ethernet
port located on the back of the system drawer.
If you are connecting to a copper NIC, use RJ-45 CAT-5 or better copper cables.
If you are connecting to a fiber NIC, use (50- or 62.5-micron) fiber-optic cables with
LC connectors.
For information about monitoring the Ethernet port LEDs, see the IBM System
Storage N Series Platform Monitoring Guide.
