Business Value
Delivers high performance, high density connectivity and superior investment protection while satisfying the most demanding SAN availability, performance and scalability requirements.
Extends all of the scalability, reliability, and performance benefits of Fibre Channel Storage Area Networks (SANs) beyond the native 10 km distance specified by the Fibre Channel standard.
High performance enhanced trunking: Optional license logically groups up to four E-ports to provide a high bandwidth trunk between two switches. Each 4Gb switch needs its own license. The switch operating system views the trunk as a single, high bandwidth resource (up to 32Gb) when routing connections between switches. Connections are load-balanced across the individual links, which comprise the logical trunk group.
This enabling technology provides the ability to monitor and watch specific fabric metrics from a SID (Source ID) to a DID (Destination ID), creating a method to be able to fine-tune and scale your fabric more efficiently. Advanced Performance Monitoring also allows the ability to have an early warning detection of hot spots within the fabric providing a powerful tool for maintaining overall balanced performance.
