Fibre Channel Ports
The QLogic 5800V Series switch has 20 Fibre Channel SFP ports and 4 Fibre
Channel XPAK ports. SFP ports are numbered 0–19 as shown in
Channel XPAK ports. SFP ports are numbered 0–19 as shown in
. Each
SFP port is served by an SFP optical transceiver, and is capable of 1, 2, 4, or
8Gbps transmission. SFP ports are hot-pluggable and can self-discover both the
port type and transmission speed when connected to devices or other switches.
The port LEDs are located above ports 0–9 and below ports 10–19. The port
LEDs provide port login and activity status information.

The port LEDs are located above ports 0–9 and below ports 10–19. The port

The XPAK ports are numbered 20–23 as shown in
. Each XPAK port is
served by an XPAK optical transceiver or an XPAK switch stacking cable. An
XPAK port is capable of 12.75Gbps transmission or 25.5Gbps with the optional
license key. XPAK ports are hot-pluggable and can self-discover transmission
speed when connected to devices or other switches. The XPAK switch stacking
cable is a passive cable and transceiver assembly that connect to other
XPAK-capable switches. The XPAK ports come with covers that must be removed
before installing transceivers or cables. XPAK port LEDs are located to the left of
their respective ports and provide port login and activity status.

The QLogic 5800V Series switch can be a 12-, 16-, 20-, or 24-port switch. For
example, the base 12-port switch enables the four XPAK ports and SFP ports 0–7.
You can choose which ports are active using the mPort™ Technology feature in
Enterprise Fabric Suite. License keys are available from your authorized reseller
to enable additional SFP ports, or to upgrade the XPAK ports to 20Gbps. For more
information about license keys, refer to
