Fibre Channel Interfaces

Interfaces for host and device attachment can be configured for up to three plug-in
PCI Mezzanine Cards (PMCs). These interfaces can be configured to use single-
port copper, single-port Short Wave Optical, single-port Long Wave Optical, or
dual-port Short Wave Optical Fibre Channel PMCs.
The PMCs can be replaced in the field by the customer or by a service
representative.
