Port Assignment of the FC Pass-Thru 
Blades
FC pass-thru blades can be installed in slots NET3 and NET4 on the rear of the 
base unit. The FC pass-thru blade in slot 1 provides a bypass connection 
between channel A of the installed fibre channel daughter cards and the corre-
sponding optical transceivers. The FC pass-thru blade in slot 2 provides a 
connection to channel B of the installed fibre channel daughter cards.

CAUTION
FC pass-thru blades must always be installed in slot NET3 first. This 
ensures that port A of the FC daughter cards is connected if 
redundant fibre channel connections are not used.
If Gigabit Ethernet daughter cards are installed in the server blades, 
LAN switch blades (see 
) or Ethernet pass-thru blades (see 
) must be installed in slots NET3 and NET4.
Asynchronous balanced mode of Ethernet blades and fibre channel 
blades in slots NET3 and NET4 is not permitted.
