NOTE
The 16 Gbps-capable SFP+s auto-negotiate at 4, 8, and 16 Gbps.The single-speed 10 Gbps SFP+s
can also be used in the 16 Gbps port blades. The 8 Gbps-capable mSFPs and SFP+s auto-negotiate
at 2, 4, and 8 Gbps. The mSFPs are compatible only with the FC8-64 high density port blade. The
16 Gbps SFP+s should be used only with the FC16-32 and FC16-48 port blades.
