Cable networking
There are three types of cables to consider for 10GbE networking:
-
Fiber
-
Direct Attach Copper (DAC)
-
Category 6a (not supported by ThoughtSpot)
Option 1 - Fiber cables
Fiber can be run long distances to the switch.

These cables require gigabit interface converters (GBICs), SFP+ form factor.
Remember: ThoughtSpot does not supply cables. Your Dell appliance may come with one appliance-side SFP+ per node, but not the switch-side SFP+'s.

The GBIC must be plugged into a data port on the back of the appliance before plugging in the fiber cables.

The fiber cables must then be plugged into the GBIC.
