1 FC host ports 2 SAS expansion port
Note – Four Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) transceivers are shipped with the
Sun Storage 2540-M2 FC controller tray, providing support for two FC ports per
controller module, or four FC ports per controller tray.
Note – The SAS host ports on the 2540-M2 FC controller tray are not for use and not
supported.

SFP Transceivers

The controller tray supports Fibre Channel (FC) and SAS drive connections. FC host
connections can operate at 8 Gb/s or at a lower data rate. Ports for 8-Gb/s Fibre
Channel host connections require SFP transceivers designed for this data rate. These
SFP transceivers look similar to other SFP transceivers but are not compatible with
other types of connections.
Note – The SFP transceiver shown might look different from those that are shipped
with your controller tray. The difference does not affect transceiver performance.
Caution – Risk of exposure to laser radiation—Do not disassemble or remove any
part of a Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) transceiver because you might be
exposed to laser radiation.
