Converged Network Adapter Features and Specifications

Oracle's Sun Storage 10 GbE FCoE PCIe Converged Network Adapter is a standard low-profile, dual-port Converged Network Adapter that is available in two models:

  • SG-(X)PCIEFCOE2-Q-SR, 7105381 - This model ships with two small form-factor pluggable plus (SFP+) short-range (SR) optical modules and supports a maximum cabling distance of 300 meters over multi-mode fiber.

  • SG-(X)PCIEFCOE2-Q-TA, 7105382 - This model is intended for use with SFP+ direct-attach twinaxial (twinax) copper cables, and supports a maximum cabling distance of 10 meters.


    Caution

    Caution  - Do not replace any of the SFP+s connectors. Doing so will void the warranty or serviceability of the Converged Network Adapter.
