The fibre channel ports will normally operate at the highest speed permitted by the fibre-channel switch, but this speed might be reduced if the signal quality on the fibre-channel connection is poor. The fibre-channel switch could have been set to operate at a lower speed by the user, or the quality of the fibre-channel signal has deteriorated.
