* Usable storage capacity can be upgraded at any time after purchase by adding a storage capacity upgrade license to enable installed hardware capacity, or by adding additional hardware capacity to the system. For information about upgrade options, see the DXi4700 Capacity Upgrade Guide (6-68107), or contact your Quantum sales representative.

DXi4700 Cable Drops

DXi4700 Cable Drops

Ethernet Cable Drops

The following Ethernet connections are available for NAS or OST connectivity, replication, and remote management.

(Standard) 3 x 1 GbE Ports

One to three 1 GbE Ethernet connections.

(Optional) 2 x 10 GbE ports or 2 x 10 GBase-T Ports

Two 10 GbE Ethernet connections (optical or Twinax)

Two 10 GBase-T CAT6 Ethernet connections.

Note: For Cisco 5000 Series Data Center Class switches, Quantum recommends using the approved 5 meter Twinax cable type that is shipped with the DXi4700 system. Otherwise, Quantum recommends using optical (SFP+) connectivity.

Note: The 10 GbE Copper (Twinax) cable options that Quantum provides do not support all switches. Please note the supported switches during the purchase-configuration process, and if the Twinax cables supplied by Quantum are not compatible with your switch, then you will need to provide your own compatible Twinax cables from your switch vendor. Be sure to have these available before the system installation takes place.
