Dual-personality ports
Port 17
consists of a CX4 port multiplexed with an SFP+ port. Only
one may be active. The SFP+ port takes precedence: if it contains a
module, it is the active port and the CX4 port is inactive.
Ports 23 and 24
are each multiplexed with inter-switch link ports
on the blade switch’s backplane. Either the SFP+ port on the front
panel or the backplane port can be active, but both can not be
active at the same time. The SFP+ port on the frontplane takes
precedence: if it contains a module, it is the active port and its
corresponding backplane port is inactive. Refer to the
Installation
and Getting Started Guide
