Cisco SFS 3012R Server Switch Chassis, page 1-4 Cisco SFS 3012R Server Switch Components, page 1-5 • Introduction The Cisco SFS 3012R Server Switch provides data center managers with a high-performance, low-latency interconnect that runs Fibre Channel and Ethernet traffic transparently over an InfiniBand backplane. Figure 1-1 attached).
Host Channel Adaptor (HCA) can be dual-attached to the two InfiniBand switch modules on the Cisco SFS 3012R Server Switch. Each gateway is also dual attached to the dual switch module. In turn, the gateway modules are dual attached to Ethernet or Fibre Channel networks in pairs. With the addition of centralized load balancing and port aggregation, Ethernet and Fibre Channel uplink connections can be trunked and load balanced, allowing the Cisco SFS 3012R Server Switch to reroute around failures.
Scalability You can populate the cable end of the Cisco SFS 3012R Server Switch with additional Fibre Channel gateways, Ethernet gateways, and a second InfiniBand switch module to increase the port count of your server switch. A second InfiniBand switch module adds 12 InfiniBand ports. Each additional Fibre Channel gateway adds 2 Fibre Channel ports.
Slot 14—Standby Controller module The vertical slots at the top of the cable end of the Cisco SFS 3012R Server Switch are numbered 1 to 14 from left to right. The horizontal slots at the bottom of the cable end of the chassis are numbered 15 to 16 from top to bottom.
Power supply Blower module 1 Blower module 2 Cisco SFS 3012R Server Switch Components The Cisco SFS 3012R Server Switch components support scalability and high availability. They are all field replaceable. These components include the following: Controller modules • Input/output (I/O) gateways; Fibre Channel and Ethernet •...

Cisco SFS 3012R Server Switch Overview Ethernet and Fibre Channel Gateways Ethernet and Fibre Channel gateways connect the Cisco SFS 3012R Server Switch and InfiniBand-connected hosts to IP and Fibre Channel networks. All gateways are dual-connected to the redundant InfiniBand backplane of the Cisco SFS 3012R Server Switch.

InfiniBand switch modules connect the Cisco SFS 3012R Server Switch to InfiniBand-attached hosts and other switches in the InfiniBand network. The Cisco SFS 3012R Server Switch supports one or two InfiniBand switch modules. The 12-port InfiniBand switch expansion module is shown in...
1-4. Redundant power supplies support hot swaps. When your server switch includes only one power supply, you can add a second power supply while the chassis runs. If you have two power supplies installed, you can remove either one of them without removing power from the chassis.
You do not need to turn off power to the chassis to replace a blower module. You access the blower module from the front (bezel end) of the Cisco SFS 3012R Server Switch chassis as shown in Figure 1-4.
