Of these, ports 1 through 16 are 10-Gigabit Ethernet and 1-Gigabit Ethernet capable ports. Ports 33 through 40 are encryption-capable Ethernet ports. Group 2 includes the ports in the top-most expansion module. Group 2 ports 1 through 4 are encrypted Ethernet ports. Group 2 ports 5 through 8 are Fibre Channel ports.
