Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) transceiver

A component that enables Fibre Channel duplex communication between storage array devices. SFP transceivers
can be inserted into host bus adapters (HBAs), controllers, and environmental services modules (ESMs). SFP
transceivers can support either copper cables (the SFP transceiver is integrated with the cable) or fiber-optic cables
(the SFP transceiver is a separate component from the fiber-optic cable).

Gathering Items

Before you start installing the controller-drive tray, you must have installed the cabinet in which the controller-drive
tray will be mounted.
