    You would probably want those clients to be Enterprise Clients using Fibre transport

    For that your appliance needs to be a model D or E as these have FT ports available

    If you have one of those mdoels then you will have three fibre cards on the right hand side as you look at the back

    The top two cards have FT ports available on the right hand side

    You need to see the SAN Client Guide for more information along with the Appliance Admin Guide

Your other alternative would be to go for the 10Gig eth ports in your appliance and clients.   If you want to get past the 1 GB speed limit.
