GigaBit Interface Converters (GBICs)

Currently, the following GBICs are certiﬁed for use:

•Short-wavelength ﬁber optic GBICs 100-M5-SN-I or 100-M6-SN-I without OFC to support connection to non-OFC Fibre Channel components.

•Long-wavelength ﬁber optic GBICs 100-SM-LC-L.

•Copper Inter-Enclosure GBIC (Active) 100-TW-EL-S or 100-TP-EL-S with either DB-9 or HSSDC connectors.

•Copper Inter-Enclosure GBIC (Passive) 100-TW-EL-S or 100-TP-EL-S with either DB-9 or HSSDC connectors.

Certiﬁed GBICs may be populated in any combination that suits your use. They are “hot-pluggable” and you may remove or replace them without tools.

Refer to Appendix A Reference Information for certiﬁed GBICs and their speciﬁ- cations. Refer also to Section 4 Removal/Replacement Procedures for more infor- mation. Figure 1-6shows a typical GBIC. This one supports ﬁber optic interconnection media.
