Full set: 41 questions

Answer options

A: 12 Gb/s SAS 2-Port 100 GbE

B: 32 Gb/s Fibre Channel 10 GbE Base-T

C: 12 Gb/s SAS 10 GbE Base-T Correct answer

D: 32 Gb/s Fibre Channel 2-Port 100 GbE

Correct Answer:

C. 12 Gb/s SAS 10 GbE Base-T

Explanation

The Dell EMC Unity 380 and 380F models support a specific range of I/O modules for connectivity. According to the official hardware specifications, these models can be configured with a 4-port 12 Gb/s SAS I/O module for backend expansion and a 4-port 10 GbE Base-T I/O module for host connectivity. Higher-speed options like 32 Gb/s Fibre Channel and 100 GbE are reserved for the higher-end Unity XT models (e.g., 880/880F).

Why Incorrect

A. The 2-Port 100 GbE I/O module is not supported on the Unity 380/380F platform; it is available on higher-end models.
B. The 32 Gb/s Fibre Channel I/O module is not supported on the Unity 380/380F; this model supports up to 16 Gb/s FC.
D. This option combines two unsupported high-speed modules (32 Gb/s FC and 100 GbE) for the Unity 380/380F model.
