When I read Nexus 5K install guide , I found the follow :
The Cisco Nexus 5596UP switch has the following features:
•48 fixed 1- and 10-Gigabit Ethernet server connection ports on the back of the switch
AND
The 48 fixed ports support 8-, 4-, 2-, or 1-Gbps Fibre Channel transceivers and 1- or 10-Gigabit Ethernet transceivers.
Does these is a conflict ?
The 48 fixed port on this switch support only 1- and 10-Gigabit Ethernet or 8-, 4-, 2-, or 1-Gbps Fibre Channel and 1- or 10-Gigabit simultaneously ?

the 5548UP has "unified ports" meaning that they can be either 1/10G Ethernet / FCoE, or 1/2/4/8 FC ports.
See the following link for more details:

Sorry I just realized you asked about 5596UP, not 5548UP. But same concept.
