FIGURE 4 Cable design for the mSFP patch cables for the FC8-64 high density port blade
Note that the duplex clip on the mSFP end of the cable is black for easier recognition. See the
appendix for a listing of the qualified mSFP optical cables for the FC8-64 port blade.
If ISL Trunking is in use, group the cables by trunking group. The ports are color-coded to indicate
which ports can be used in the same ISL Trunking group: eight ports marked with solid black ovals
alternate with eight ports marked with oval outlines.
