Just be sure...

If you are using DS14MK shelves with a 4-gb FC adapter, be sure to use the 10-Gig certified (aka Aqua Blue) fibers.

If you have SATA drives or are using the 1 or 2Gb FC interfaces, then the orage cables will do.

Fletcher,

Assuming you mean DS14mk4 FC or DS14mk2 AT shelves, NetApp sells up to 30m optical fiber cables. With 6 racks you can probably use 10m cables.

Thank you, Tim

We have rack space constraints. Can our 3250 heads be 6 racks away from our MK14 trays?

Thanks, Fletcher
