RDMA Network Fabric Switch-to-Server Cabling Connections
For InfiniBand Network Fabric,Table 17-8 lists the location, ports, and cables for the connections from the gateway leaf switches to the servers in a Recovery Appliance X8, X7, X6 or X5 full rack. The port numbers and cable lengths are the same in racks with fewer storage servers. The switches are located in rack units 20 and 22.
All cables are black quad data rate (QDR) cables.
