Cabling requirements
The DAE2P/DAE3P supports copper cable for a Fibre Channel connection to another Fibre Channel device (for example, a storage processor, DAE2, or another DAE2P/DAE3P).
Any copper cables you use must meet the appropriate standards for 2-Gb FC-AL. Such cables are fully shielded, twin-axial, full-duplex cables with at least one High Speed Serial Data Connector...
