The first picture are SFP+ where the transceiver is on the cable. On the second it's LC-LC cables.

Last question: i promise.

Is possible to connect directly a SAN with a SERVER

SAN->SERVER

Or i need a SAN switch Even with a single server?

No it's possible without switch. For direct connect without switch you need to change the setting on the FrontPort.
