The two FC ports operate at speeds of 8/16/32 Gbps. FC ports use an enhanced small form factor pluggable (SFP+) optical connector.
The SFP+ ports can be removed from the chassis.
Note: When removed, the 10/25 GbE Network SFP28 and the 32 GB Fibre Channel (FC) SFP+ storage ports are indistinguishable from one another except for their vendor information. The information is located on the transceiver housing and is only visible when the transceiver is removed. For more information, see Parts list for Hitachi VSP One File 32 Gen2 server.
