For dedicated ports, oversubscription ratio restrictions do not apply to the shared pool in port groups. So if oversubscription ratio restrictions are disabled, and you have configured three 4-Gbps dedicated ports in one port group, then you can configure all other ports in the same port group to operate at a shared rate of 4 Gbps. In the following example, a 48-port module has a group of six ports, four dedicated ports are operating at 8 Gbps, and the two shared ports are also operating at 8 Gbps:
