This enumerated value reports the interface type of this FCoE SAN port-channel — the physical/logical category of link it represents in Cisco's UCS interface classification. Knowing the ifType lets monitoring tooling apply the right expectations (speed, aggregation behavior) to this FCoE SAN port-channel instead of treating every interface entry the same way. For a port-channel member like this the value is typically something like 'aggr-port' (an aggregated-port member), distinguishing it from a plain physical port entry.
