FAQs

Q: What is the difference between port-side exhaust and intake airflow?
A: Port-side exhaust draws cool air from the PSU side and exhausts hot air out the port side (front-to-back), aligning with data centers that pull air front-to-back across racks.

Q: Can I mix 32G and 64G Fibre Channel optics on the same switch?
A: Yes. Links auto-negotiate to the highest mutually supported speed; a 64G-capable port will run at 32G when paired with a 32G optic/device.

Q: How do I enable more than 24 ports?
A: Add Port-On-Demand (POD) licenses to activate additional ports up to the full 48.

Q: Does this bundle include optics?
A: The model designation indicates 32G SW optic support; specific quantities are configuration-dependent. Verify the bill of materials for included transceiver counts.

Q: Is FC-NVMe supported?
A: Yes, the platform supports FC-NVMe alongside traditional FCP, enabling modern flash arrays with low latency.
