I/O bays 7 - 10 are used for high-speed switch modules such as the Virtual Fabric 10 Gb Switch Module

or Cisco Nexus 4001I Switch Module. These bays are routed internally through midplane connectors to

the ports on CFFh expansion cards (with HS23 blade, I/O bays 7 and 9 are routed to the integrated

10GbE ports on HS23 through LOM Interposer Card). I/O bays 7 - 10 can also be converted to the

standard I/O bays with the Multi-Switch Interconnect Module (MSIM).

The I/O modules must be compatible with the I/O interfaces that are present in the blade servers. For example,

when a Fibre Channel expansion card is installed in a blade server, I/O modules 3 and 4 must also be Fibre

Channel-based (that is, an FC switch module), and vice versa. If you install FC switches in bays 3 and 4, then

any expansion cards that are installed in all other blade servers in the same chassis must be Fibre Channel.

Table 4 shows the connections between the adapter slots in the compute nodes to the switch bays in the

chassis.
