Supported Fiber NICs
A fiber network interface card (NIC) provides fiber connectivity. You can purchase a fiber NIC and install it on a Secure Web Gateway appliance in addition to already existing components.
For information about the port assignments that apply when you install a fiber NIC, see Port Assignments for a 1 GbE Fiber NIC and Port Assignments for a 10 GbE Fiber NIC.
The following table shows the fiber NICs that are supported. They are only supported, however, if you buy them from a Skyhigh Security representative or partner.
