(1) Four Fibre Channel Short-Wave GBICs are included with SAN
Fibre Channel Switch P/N 2109S08
(2) Cable length requirements are dependant on component
placement within the rack suite. The parts list for this example
reflects requirements for the illustrated configuration only. Cable
length requirements for other configurations are best determined by
using the Netfinity Rack Configurator which is downloadable from
Web site www.ibm.com/pc/us/products/server/download.html
(3) A tape library is optional and attaches to any one of the nodes
within the cluster.
(4) Please contact your NAE Specialist in Advanced Technical
Support about the most up-to-date Cluster interconnect requirements.
