Fibre Channel predominantly uses SFP or SFP+ modules with LC connector and duplex cabling, but 128GFC uses QSFP28 modules with MPO connectors and ribbon cabling. OverviewFibre Channel (FC) is a high-speed data transfer protocol providing in-order, lossless delivery of raw block data. When the technology was originally devised, it ran over optical fiber cables only and, as such, was called "Fiber Channel".
