Determining which model you have

Currently, there are four different AX4-5 series enclosure configurations. Since the enclosure is not marked with the model
type, the following table and associated illustrations will help you determine its model number.
The table lists the model number and a brief description of each enclosure. The illustrations show the rear view of each
enclosure. The Fibre Channel enclosures require a Fibre Optic connection; the iSCSI enclosures require an Ethernet
connection.
