I/O module A
2. I/O module B
The I/O modules are major components in the Fibre Channel loop. Each module has two ports that
can both transmit and receive data for bidirectional operation. Activating a port requires connecting a
transceiver to the port via fibre optic cables. The port function depends upon the loop (see Figure 24 ).

I/O module status displays
The three green LEDs on the A and B I/O modules display the status. The LED status displays for an
operational I/O module are shown in Table 10 . Table 11 shows the status displays for a non operational
I/O module.
