NetApp NS0-516 Exam - Topic 6 Question 20 Discussion

Posted by Patti on Nov 24, 2025 at 07:15 AM

Click the Exhibit button.

You ordered a NetApp E2812 Duplex 16GB 10 GbE Base-T system.

Referring to the exhibit, what is the maximum number of 10GbE Base-T ports available to be used?

Suggested Answer: B

The exhibit shows the supported adapter cards for the E2812 system with specific marketing part numbers.

The E2812 system ordered is a Duplex 16Gb 10GbE Base-T system with the adapter card part number X-56023-00-0E-C, which is described as 'HIC.E2800.10Gb Base-T.2-ports, -C'.

Each card provides 2 ports.

Given that the system is duplex, it means it has two controllers, each capable of supporting one card.

Therefore, each controller can have one 10GbE Base-T card with 2 ports, resulting in a maximum of 4 ports available in total for the system.

Trick question, the real answer is 11 ports - 12 ports minus the 1 port that's already been used to connect the system.
