I/O Expansion Module- Optical/Optical

This 2Gb FC expansion module has two SFF LC optical connectors. The top connector is the FC Loop Input port and the bottom connector is for FC Loop Expansion. A loop back terminator is not required.

2Gb SANbloc RAID Controller

The 2Gb SANbloc RAID Controller is a high performance controller, providing two host fibre channel and two device fibre channel interfaces. It is an intelligent, caching controller that supports RAID levels 0, 1, 3, 5, 0+1, and JBOD. The controller enables multiple hosts to access an array of disk drives, which can be configured as one or more virtual storage devices (logical units).
