Connectivity using the Cisco UCS 2104XP Fabric Extender
The options shown in Figure 24 and Figure 25 demonstrate how the UCS B22 M3 blade serves connects to a
UCS 2104XP Fabric Extender.
In Figure 24, one port from the VIC 1240 is channeled to 2104XP Fabric Extender A and one is channeled to
2104XP Fabric Extender B. The result is 10 Gbps of bandwidth to each Fabric Extender. The Cisco UCS
Storage Accelerator adapter located in the mezzanine connector acts as an independent device controlled
by CPU 2 and has no network connectivity.
