Figure 18. Outside view of the Embedded Fibre Channel Switch Module
The Fibre Channel switch within the module consists of 14 ports compatible with the 4 Gb/sec. Fibre Channel standard. Eight ports are connected internally to the FC-HBA of up to eight FC-HBA + Gigabit Ethernet Combo Cards, and six of the ports are external ports used to connect to external storage. Figure 19 depicts the back view of the module and a blow up of the Fibre Channel switch. The block diagram for the module is shown in Figure 20.
