I/O modules
VNX5700 Hardware Information Guide 47
Note: The Lucent Connector (LC) type interface was developed by Lucent Technologies
(hence, Lucent Connector). It uses a push-pull mechanism. LC connectors are normally
held together in a multimode duplex configuration with a plastic clip. These cables are
usually colored orange with the duplex connectors encased in a gray plastic covering. To
determine the send or transmit (TX) and receive (RX) ferrules (connector ends), these
cables will show a letter and numeral (for example A1 and A2 for the TX and RX,
respectively) or a white and yellow rubber gasket (jacket) for the send or transmit (TX) and
receive (RX) ends.
Four-port 8-Gb/s FC I/O module LEDs
The four-port 8-Gb/s Fibre Channel (FC) I/O module has two different types of status LEDs.
Figure 38 shows the LEDs and Table 24 describes them.
