FC SFPs and FC Cables
EVA Loopback Connector HP EVA P6000 Loopback Connector AJ706A
Contains one Loopback connector. The loopback connector is used when an EVA P6000
FC host port is not cabled to a switch or HBA (for direct connect).
NOTE: All EVA FC host ports must be filled with either a cable or loopback connector.
SFPs The EVA P6000 controllers come with 8Gb SFPs in each FC port.
The following tables show the distances available with various cables and transceivers.

HP 7.6m/25ft CAT5 RJ45 M/M Ethernet Cable C7537A
HP 15.2m/50ft CAT5 RJ45 M/M Ethernet Cable C7542A
NOTE: For more information on the Ethernet cables, see:

rackandpower/data-cables/cat_5_cables.html?jumpid=reg_R1002_USEN
(Up to 8 are needed.)
10GbE Copper Ethernet
cables
These copper FC cables can be used to connect 10GbE ports to the customer's
iSCSI/FCoE network, if the connection is inside the EVA cabinet. No SFPs are required as
SFPs are part of the copper cables. A 3m cable length is recommended for connections
within the same cabinet. Longer cables are available for connection to adjacent
cabinets. 4 cables are required for redundancy.
