Hardware Requirements of Optical Fibre Channel PCI Adapters

Optical Fibre Channel PCI adapters are optional. Table 3-2lists the maximum number of optical Fibre Channel PCI adapters in each system.

Table 3-2. Maximum Numbers of Optical Fibre Channel PCI Adapters

System	Maximum Number of Optical Fibre Channel PCI Adapters

Express5800/320Ma	2	U525	PCI adapters, part number AA-U52500 or AA-U52510 or
3.2 GHz and 3.6 GHz,	2	U526	PCI adapters, part number AA-U52600 or AA-U52610
Dual-Core

You can install full-height PCI adapters only in slot 2 or slot 3. (To provide the necessary slots in an Express5800/320Ma 3.2 GHz system, you must install the AK533 attachment kit. See the Express5800/320Ma: Operation and Maintenance Guide for more information.)

Connect two, paired, optical Fibre Channel PCI adapters from each system to a storage array (for U526 PCI adapters) or to a SAN or switch (for U525 PCI adapters). Paired PCI adapters occupy paired slots in different enclosures. For example, PCI slots 10/1 and 11/1 are paired slots.
