 8 Gb/s
 16 Gb/s
Note: Emulex 8 Gb/s adapters do not support 1 Gb/s link speed. Emulex 16 G/bs
adapters do not support 1 Gb/s or 2 Gb/s link speed. Additionally, some older
devices do not support auto link speed detection, therefore the link speed must
be forced to match the speed of those devices.
To change the adapter’s link speed:
1. From the main configuration menu (Figure 4-2), select Configure Advanced
Adapter Parameters. The adapter configuration menu is displayed (Figure 4-9).
2. Select Link Speed Selection. The Link Speed Selection menu (Figure 4-19) is
displayed.

use.
4. Press <Esc> until you exit the BIOS utility.
5. Reboot the system.
