Introduction to McDATA Multi-Protocol Products 1 - Universal port module (UPM) cards. Each UPM card provides four 2.1250 Gbps Fibre Channel port connections through duplex SFP fiber-optic transceivers. - Ten-gigabit port module (XPM) cards. Each XPM card provides one 10.2000 Gbps Fibre Channel port connection through a duplex ten-gigabit small form factor pluggable (XFP) fiber-optic transceiver. For FPM, UPM, and XPM cards, shortwave laser transceivers are available for transferring data over multimode fiber-optic cable. Longwave laser transceivers are available for transferring data over singlemode fiber-optic cable. Fiber-optic cables attach to director port transceivers with duplex LC® connectors. The power module assembly at the rear of the director also provides a 9-pin, type-D subminiature (DSUB) maintenance port for connection to a local terminal or remote terminal. Although the port is typically used by authorized maintenance personnel, operations personnel can use the port to configure director network addresses. Intrepid 6140 Director The Intrepid 6140 Director is a third-generation, enterprise-class product that provides switched fabric connectivity for up to 140 Fibre Channel devices. The product provides high-performance scalable bandwidth, highly-available operation, redundant switched data paths, long transmission distances (up to 20 km), and high device population. Figure 1-3 illustrates the director. The director supports McDATA's non-blocking EON architecture and concurrent firmware downloads through HotCAT technology. The director also provides a modular design that enables quick removal and replacement of FRUs, including: • Front bezel with power (green) and system error (amber) LEDs. • Redundant CTP (2.1250 and 10.2000 Gbps operation) logic cards. • Redundant SBAR assembly logic cards. • Redundant cooling fans. • Redundant power supply and AC modules. • Backplane. 1-10 McDATA Products in a SAN Environment - Planning Manual
