This illustration shows the locations of the hardware in the Fibre Channel disk module
as well as the Fibre Channel port connectors at the back of the enclosure:
Fibre Channel disk modules connect to Fibre Channel ServerNet adapters (FCSAs) via
Fiber Channel arbitrated loop (FC-AL) cables. This drawing shows the two Fibre
Channel arbitrated loops implemented within the Fibre Channel disk module.
For more information on the Fibre Channel disk module, see Fibre Channel Disk
