Dell 8/4 Gbps Fibre Channel Pass-Through I/O Module

The 8G Fibre Channel pass-through module provides a bypass connection between a Fibre Channel mezzanine card in the blade and optical transceivers. The bypass connection enables a direct connection to a Fibre Channel switch or a storage array. The 16 pass-through ports on this module can negotiate speeds of 2, 4, and 8 Gbps. The 8G Fibre Channel pass-through module is hot-swappable and may be installed in Fabric B or Fabric C.

NOTE: To ensure proper functionality, use only the Short Wave Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP) transceivers provided with this module.
