VNX5500 Block and File product description
Note: Adding the four-port 6-Gb/s SAS I/O module to each SP in the 3U DPE
allows you to increase the back end support of the VNX5500 platform from two
to six back end buses per SP (“Four-port 6-Gb/s SAS I/O module” on page 54
provides more information).
– One RS-232/EIA 232 serial (up to 115 K baud) service laptop port (micro DB-9)
– One RS-232/EIA 232 serial SPS management (micro DB-9) port
– One 10/100/1000 LAN management (RJ-45) port
– One 10/100/1000 LAN service (RJ-45) port
– One power supply (hot-swappable)
◆ One dual 1U standby power supply (SPS)
◆ One to two 2U DMEs with first DME having two Data Movers and the second (optional)
having from zero to one Data Mover. Each Data Mover consists of:
• One CPU module consisting of one Intel Xeon 4-core 2.13-GHz processor
• Six DDR3 synchronous dynamic RAM (SDRAM) slots supporting up to 12 GB per
CPU module
• One Fibre Channel (FC) I/O module with a:
Note: The maximum number of I/O modules for the VNX5500 is four per Data
Mover. One FC I/O module and up to three other I/O modules. Any combination of
these I/O modules must be the same for both Data Movers.
– Four-port 8-Gb/s optical (running at 2, 4, or 8 Gb/s); in slot 0 only; labeled
8 GbE Fibre on the latch handle
• One, two, or three of the following network I/O modules in any combination:
– Two-port 10-Gb/s optical or active Twinax
1
; labeled 10 GbE v2 on the latch
handle
– Two-port 10-Gb/s optical or active Twinax
5
; labeled 10 GbE v3 on the latch
handle
Note: Version 3 of the two-port 10-Gb/s optical or active Twinax I/O module
requires VNX OE File version 7.1 or later.
– Four-port 1-Gb/s copper; labeled 1 GbE on the latch handle
– Two-port 1-Gb/s copper plus two-port 1-Gb/s optical; labeled 1 GbE on the
latch handle
– Two-port 10-Gb/s RJ45 Base-T iSCSI/IP; labeled 10 GbE Base-T on the latch
handle
Note: The two-port 10-Gb/s RJ-45 Base-T/IP I/O module requires VNX OE for File
version 7.1 or later.
1. The two-port 10-Gb/s I/O modules can also use active twinaxial (Twinax) cables. Twinax is a type
of cable similar to coax, but with two inner conductors instead of one. These cables will be
supplied in lieu of SFP+ when so ordered.
