The Host Adapter requires the installation of a GigaBit Interface Converter
(GBIC) module before the Fibre Channel cable is connected. The GBIC
converts electrical signals to optical signals, and vice versa, for transmission
across the Fibre Channel media. The Fibre Channel cable connector is plugged
into the installed GBIC module.
