Fibre Channel Interfaces
Interfaces for host and device attachment include two 2-Gb/s bi-directional
Short Wave connections.
The Giga-Bit Interface Converter (GBIC) can interoperate with both 2 Gb/sec
and 1 Gb/sec data links. The GBIC is hot-swappable and is the only
component, except for the SNC 5100 unit itself that is a Field Replaceable Unit
(FRU). See Removing and Replacing the GBIC on page 82.
