M Mb Megabit. MB Megabyte. (There are 8 bits in a byte.) MIA An acronym for the media interface adapter plug-ins, which allow you to go from copper to optical or visa versa. MIM mapping table motherboard multicast multiplexer N_Port N_Port Identifier narrow SCSI node name non-OFC An acronym for the Media Interface Module. A table which is indexed by sequential LUN values, indicating selected BUS:TARGET:LUN devices. It is used by the 4x50 to perform Fibre Channel-toSCSI operations by default. The main PCA of the 4x50 that provides a physical and logical connection between Fibre Channel and SCSI devices. Refers to delivering a single transmission to multiple destination N_ports. A device that allows two or more signals to be transmitted simultaneously on a single channel. N A FC term defining a "Node" port. A FC-defined hardware entity that performs data communication over the FC link. It is identifiable by a unique Worldwide Name. It can act as an originator or a responder. A FC term indicating a unique address identifier by which an N_Port is uniquely known. It consists of a Domain (most significant byte), an Area, and a Port, each 1 byte long. The N_Port identifier is used in the Source Identifier (S_ID) and Destination Identifier (D_ID) fields of a FC frame. 50-pin SCSI connector; can be single-ended or differential in implementation. A field value under the FC Status menu. The unique FC identifier, a 64-bit value, the factory assigns to the 4x50. An acronym for Non Open-Ended Fibre Control. This approach does not drop the laser power when a cable link is dropped. Non-OFC uses a lower power laser than an OFC system. 252
