4.8.4Changing Your SFP Configuration

The FC and SATA arrays use SFP connectors to attach to hosts and expansion units. SATA SE arrays use SFP connectors to attach to hosts. These SFP connectors resemble the one shown in Figure 4-23,with a single connector at the end that plugs into an SFP port on the array or expansion unit chassis, and a duplex jack into which you insert a cable to make the connection.

■To connect to an empty port, first slide the SFP connector into the port so that it connects firmly with the chassis. Then plug the fiber-optic cable’s SFP connector into the duplex jack at the end of the SFP.

■To remove an SFP connector, remove the cable if one is connected to it, and then slide the SFP out from the port.
