Interface Cables and Connections

This section provides information about array module interface cables and their appropriate connections.

The E2400 10x and E2400 14x array modules support Fibre Channel connections to drive modules. Each module has four GBIC connectors; two on each controller. The connectors may be fiber optic or copper (Figure 4-6). The connector type depends on what type of drive interface you order and what type of cable you will be using to attach the array module to the drive module.
