Inserting a cable into an SFP+

Connecting to Ethernet or fast Ethernet hubs

For copper connections to Ethernet hubs, a 10/100Base-TX or 1000Base-T switch, or another Brocade device, a 
crossover cable is required. If the hub is equipped with an uplink port, it will require a straight-through cable instead 
of a crossover cable.

NOTE
The 802.3ab standard (automatic MDI or MDIX detection) calls for automatic negotiation of the connection between 
two 1000Base-T ports. Therefore, a crossover cable may not be required; a straight-through cable may work as well.

Connecting to workstations, servers, or routers

Straight-through UTP cabling is required for direct UTP attachment to workstations, servers, or routers using network 
interface cards (NICs).

Fiber cabling is required for direct attachment to Gigabit NICs/CNAs or switches and routers through fiber ports. 

Connecting a network device to a fiber port

For direct attachment from the Brocade device to a Gigabit NIC, switch, or router, fiber cabling with an LC connector 
is required. Refer to 

 above for details about installing SFPs and 

cables.
