Connectivity using the Cisco UCS 2204XP Fabric Extender
The Cisco UCS 2204XP is a second-generation Fabric Extender, and shares the same form factor as the
current UCS 2100 Series. The 2204XP is backwards compatible with the UCS 5108 Blade serve chassis.
The options shown in Figure 14 and Figure 15 demonstrate how the server uses these options:
■ VIC 1340/1240 to 2204XP
■ VIC 1340/1240 plus Port Expander Card for VIC to 2204XP
In Figure 14, one port from the VIC 1340/1240 is channeled to 2204XP Fabric Extender A and one is
channeled to 2204XP Fabric Extender B. The result is 10 Gbps of bandwidth to each Fabric Extender.
