The Cisco Gigabit Ethernet Switch Module (CGESM) Interconnect Kit is for applications that require
network adapter consolidation to 1000 Mbps (Gigabit Ethernet) in a Cisco infrastructure. The CGESM
supports the same and HP ProLiant BL30p Fibre Channel pass-through as the GbE2.
The Cisco Gigabit Ethernet Switch Module Interconnect kit includes one CGESM Interconnect
Switch or one CGESM Interconnect Switch populated with two (2) RJ-45 10/100/1000 T/TX/T
Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP) Modules.
Quantity 2 Cisco Gigabit Ethernet Switch Module Interconnect kits provide two CGESM
Interconnect Switches providing any combination of up to twelve (12) RJ-45 10/100/1000 T/TX/T
or Fiber SX external ports per server blade enclosure.
The optional ProLiant BL p-Class Storage Connectivity Kit (321745 -B21) is required for HP
ProLiant BL30p Fibre Channel pass-through when using either the CGESM Interconnect Kit.
The GbE2 Interconnect Kits (C-GbE2 and F-GbE2) provide NIC consolidation to 1000 Mbps (Gigabit
Ethernet), advanced network feature, Fibre Channel pass-through (for HP ProLiant BL20p server blade
series and HP ProLiant BL30p server blades series), and 1 Gigabit Ethernet bandwidth connectivity to the
network.
The ProLiant BL p-Class F-GbE2 Interconnect Kit includes two GbE2 Interconnect Switches and
two QuadSX Interconnect Modules that provide eight (8) LC 1000 SX and four (4) RJ-45
10/100/1000 T/TX/T external ports per server blade enclosure.
The ProLiant BL p-Class C-GbE2 Interconnect Kit includes two GbE2 Interconnect Switches and
two QuadT2 Interconnect Modules that provide twelve (12) RJ-45 10/100/1000 T/TX/T external
ports per server blade enclosure.
The optional ProLiant BL p-Class Storage Connectivity Kit (321745 -B21) is required for Fibre
Channel pass-through when using either the C-GbE2 or F-GbE2 Interconnect Kit.
The GbE Interconnect Kits (C-GbE and F-GbE) provide NIC consolidation to 100 Mbps (Fast Ethernet).
The ProLiant BL p-Class F-GbE Interconnect Kit includes two GbE Interconnect Switches and two
DualTSX Interconnect Modules that provide four (4) LC 1000 SX and eight (8) RJ-45 10/100 T/TX
external ports per server blade enclosure.
The ProLiant BL p-Class C-GbE Interconnect Kit includes two GbE Interconnect Switches and two
QuadT Interconnect Modules that provide four (4) RJ-45 10/100/1000 T/TX/T and eight (8) RJ-
45 10/100 T/TX external ports per server blade enclosure.
Also included (per Interconnect Switch):
