Connectivity Using The Cisco Ucs 2104Xp Fabric Extender - Cisco UCS B440 M2 Spec Sheet

In Figure 15, one port from the VIC 1280 in slot 2 is connected to Fabric Extender A and one is connected to
Fabric Extender B. Likewise, one port from the QLogic or Emulex adapter in slot 1 is also connected to each
Fabric Extender. The result is 20 Gbps of bandwidth to each Fabric Extender.

In Figure 16 on page 36, there is no adapter installed in adapter slot 1. In this case, an Emulex or QLogic
I/O adapter is installed in adapter 2 slot. Ports A and B of the adapter connect to the Fabric Extenders,
providing 10 Gbps per port, for a total of 20 Gbps throughput.
