4 x 8G SAN uplinks supported per Virtual Connect FlexFabric module ?

Stephen had a VC FlexFabric question:

 

********************

 

Customer wants blade chassis with total of 8 x 8G SAN uplinks (4 per FlexFabric module). Can anyone let me know if this is NOT supported please?

Scott had the answer:

That is in reference to the downlinks to the server.  In reference to the uplinks, QuickSpecs shows:

 

4 SFP+ external uplink ports configurable as either 10Gb Ethernet or 2/4/8Gb auto-negotiating Fibre Channel connections to external LAN or SAN switches

4 SFP+ external uplink ports configurable as 1/10Gb auto-negotiating Ethernet connected to external LAN switches

Any additonal comments or questions?
