To Connect the Optical Cables
Note - The Converged Network Adapter does not
allow normal data transmission on an optical link unless it is connected
to another similar or compatible Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE)
product (that is, another Converged Network Adapter or FCoE switch
using compatible short range optics).
Use multi-mode fiber-optic cable, intended for short-wave lasers, that adheres to the
specifications listed in Converged Network
Adapter Features and Specifications.
- Connect
the fiber-optic cable, or cables, to an LC connector on the adapter.
The following figure shows how to connect the dual-port adapter with fiber-optic
cables.
- Connect the other end of the
cable, or cables, to the FCoE switch.
Note -
Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) cannot be used on the same
port as FCoE or iSCSI.
