Looking for information on max distances from host to A5000 array?
Sun states that using 50/125 MM fiber you can get up to 500 meters. That
is good and all but my problem is that we have 62.5/125 MM fiber run
between two buildings. The total cable run is going to be about 300
meters. According to what I've read using 62.5 micro cable at 100MB/s
you're limited to about 175 meters.
Has anyone done 300+ meters using 62.5/125 cable on a Sun A5000 array?
Finally, Sun's docs state that their GBIC's etc use 50 micron. Is there
a going to be problems connecting 62.5 micro cable to the Sun GBIC?
Thanks
