Connecting the IBM 1 Gigabit-SX iSCSI TOE PCI-X adapter (optical connector) to an Ethernet network
The fiber adapters are designed with specifications that the cable
be a dual-cable connector, with transmit and receive cable ends clamped together.
If you use separate transmit and receive fiber cables, clamp the cables together
to enhance the retention strength on the fiber transceiver connector. Clamping
the cables together also improves the alignment of the fibers with the connector
and is designed to improve overall performance.
