B FCOE10-24 blade • Trunk group 2: FC ports 2,3,4,5,8,9,10,11 FCOE10-24 blade The FCOE10-24 blade has 24 Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) ports that enables the transmission of FC frames over an Ethernet network via encapsulation in standard Ethernet packets. This is enabled by adherence to Converged Enhanced Ethernet (CEE) standards, a low latency, lossless Ethernet standard. This does not require dedicated Ethernet lines, but rather can make use of existing Ethernet infrastructure to reduce costs. There are no licensing requirements for functionality on this blade. Refer to the Fabric OS Administrator's Guide for information on configuring these features. The FCOE10-24 blade provides the following hardware features: • 24 FCoE ports operating at 10 Gbps • 32 FC ports operating at 8-Gbps through the backplane • Hot pluggable • I2C Management interface through the backplane • JTAG support • Blade power and status LEDs • Link status LEDs per port The FX8-24 blade also provides the following functionality features: • FCoE switching • CEE switching • Standard L2 Ethernet features • Standard Ethernet encapsulation • End of row deployment 104 PowerConnect B-DCX4S Backbone Hardware Reference Manual 53-1001808-01
