Network Cables
The storage system uses network cables for its management network ports, service network ports, and other ports to connect to other devices or application servers for communication.
Appearance
The storage system communicates with the external network using network cables. One end of the network cable connects to the management network port, service network port, or other maintenance network port of the storage system, and the other end connects to the network switch, application server, or other devices.
Figure 4-123 shows the appearance of a network cable.
GE electrical ports employ CAT5 network cables or CAT6A shielded network cables. 10GE electrical ports employ 1 m to 3 m CAT6A shielded network cables.
