Chapter 1 Product Overview Switching Modules Send documentation comments to [email protected]. 24-port 4-Gbps Fibre Channel Switching Module The 24-port 4-Gbps Fibre Channel switching module offers 24 autosensing 1-, 2-, and 4-Gbps Fibre Channel ports and can be used in any of the Cisco MDS 9500 Series chassis and in the Cisco MDS 9216i and 9216A Switches. The 24-port switching module can be configured in one of two operational modes: shared bandwidth mode (default) and dedicated bandwidth mode. Figure 1-22 shows a 24-port 4-Gbps Fibre Channel switching module. The front panel connectors support standard modular SFP and the speed detection is autosensing.

The 12-port 4-Gbps switching module is a full rate mode module providing 12 SPF-based Fibre Channel interfaces. Each interface is capable of supporting full line rate operation at 4-Gbps interface speed. The module delivers a sustained data rate of up to 4 Gbps in each direction, on all ports simultaneously, and up to 96 Gbps of continuous, aggregate bandwidth when attached to high-performance servers and storage subsystems. Figure 1-23 shows a 12-port 4-Gbps Fibre Channel switching module. The front panel connectors support standard modular SFP and the speed detection is autosensing.
