Dual Port Fibre Channel Mezzanine Card - HP ProLiant BL20p Generation 2 Maintenance And Service Manual

Dual Port Fibre Channel Mezzanine Card

An optional dual port Fibre Channel (FC) mezzanine card enables Fibre Channel support, for
clustering capabilities, and SAN connection when used in conjunction with the RJ-45 Patch
Panel 2 or the GbE2 Interconnect Switch with Fibre Channel pass-through option. The card
replaces the standard NIC module that is shipped with some server blades. Both the standard
NIC module and the FC mezzanine card have two 10/100/1000 NICs. Refer to the HP
ProLiant BL20P Generation 2 Server Blade Setup and Installation Guide for more
information about connecting to a SAN.
