Glossary
singlemode optical fiber
An optical fiber that allows one wavelength-dependent mode (light path) to propagate.
Contrast with multimode optical fiber.
small computer system interface
SCSI. An interface standard that enables computers to communicate with peripherals
connected to them. Commonly used in enterprise computing and in Apple Macintosh systems.
Usually pronounced as “scuzzy.” The equivalent interface in most personal computers is
enhanced integrated drive electronics (EIDE).
A narrow SCSI adapter supports up to eight devices, including itself. SCSI address 7 has the
highest priority followed by 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0, with 0 being the lowest priority.
small form factor pluggable transceivers
SFP transceivers. Laser-based optical transceivers for a wide range of networking applications
requiring high data rates. The transceivers, which are designed for increased densities,
performance, and reduced power, are well-suited for Fibre Channel applications.
