3 Ports The Brocade DCX-4S has 8 slots that contain control processor, core, port, and AP blades: • Slot numbers 4 and 5 contain CPs. • Slot numbers 3 and 6 contain core blades. • Slot numbers 1 and 2, and 7 and 8 contain port and AP blades. NOTE The Core blades for the Brocade DCX (CORE8) and the Brocade DCX-4S (CR4S-8) are not interchangeable between the two products. When you have port blades with different port counts in the same director (for example, 16-port blades and 32-port blades, or 16-port blades and 18-port blades with 16 FC ports and 2 GbE ports, or 16-port and 48-port blades), the area IDs no longer match the port numbers.

Ports

The Brocade DCX-4S has 8 slots that contain control processor, core, port, and AP blades:
Slot numbers 4 and 5 contain CPs.
Slot numbers 3 and 6 contain core blades.
Slot numbers 1 and 2, and 7 and 8 contain port and AP blades.
NOTE
The Core blades for the Brocade DCX (CORE8) and the Brocade DCX-4S (CR4S-8) are not
interchangeable between the two products.
When you have port blades with different port counts in the same director (for example, 16-port
blades and 32-port blades, or 16-port blades and 18-port blades with 16 FC ports and 2 GbE ports,
or 16-port and 48-port blades), the area IDs no longer match the port numbers.
Table 3
lists the
port numbering schemes for the Brocade 48000, and the Brocade DCX and DCX-4S
enterprise-class platforms.
