The duplex SC multimode fiber optic connector (see Figure 3-2 ) is used to connect a Fibre Channel switch to a Dell™
PowerVault™ 132T or 136T tape library. This type of connection requires fiber optic cables with both duplex LC and SC
multimode fiber optic connectors.

The LC and SC connectors consist of two individual fiber optic connectors. Each connector is indexed and must be inserted
and aligned properly in the GBIC or SFP module connector.
When using duplex multimode fiber optic connectors, keep the covers on the connectors until you are ready to insert the
connectors into the system. The covers protect the cables and connectors and prevent foreign particles from entering and
damaging the connector.

The NICs in the cluster nodes provide at least two network connections for each node. These connections are described in
Table 3-3 .
