[Suns-at-Home] T3 electrical -> fibre interface

[hessel.keegstra@chello.nl]

Hi,

Did SUN offer the T3 with an electrical FC HSSDC connector instead of optical? Never seen that. What kind of controller board does your T3 have? Both the T3 and the later T3+ that I know of have a SC resp. LC-SFF optical connector. The two D-Sub 9 connectors at the back are for local interconnects creating "Partner Groups" and cannot be used to connect a computer to. 

I have a couple of T3+ arrays at home connected to a E4K5 and a Blade2K. Works beautifully (running Solaris).

Regards,
  Hessel
