About the Fibre Channel Interface Board s
Each Fibre Channel Interface Board, as shown in Figure 13, has four Interface
Processors for management of connectivity to the host. Each port supports a transfer rate of
2Gbit/sec (gigabits/second) in conformance with the Fibre Channel standard. An optional
eight-port Fibre Channel Interface Board is also available.
With the Lightning 9900 V Series industry-leading implementation of “virtual” Fibre
Channel ports, each interface card is equivalent to multiple interface cards in competitive
systems. Each interface card also contains Oracle
