SFP Transceivers Fibre Optic And SAS Cables

NOTE: Your small form-factor pluggable (SFP) transceivers and cables may look different from the ones shown
below. The differences do not affect the performance of the SFP transceivers.

FC host connections may operate at 8 Gbps or at a lower data rate. Ports for 8 Gbps Fibre Channel host connections
require SFP transceivers designed for this data rate. SFP transceivers that support other data rates are incompatible.

WARNING: Do not disassemble or remove any part of a SFP transceiver due to the possibility of being exposed to
Laser radiation.
