Dell PowerVault 56F 16-Port Fibre Channel Switch User's Guide

8QLYHUVDO 3RUWV

The switch is manufactured with 16 universal ports (U_Ports). U_ports provide the

greatest amount of flexibility when building a fabric because the ports automatically

and dynamically configure themselves to operate in E_Port, F_Port, or FL_Port mode

during port installation. The ports negotiate from the FL_Port to the higher-performing

F_Port if the attached device supports both modes.

The embedded port, which is a logical N_Port, is based on a microcontroller and is

responsible for:

Fibre Channel link control

Switch management

Routing table management

Address assignment and management functions

Management of Class F services and the related protocols as defined in the Fibre

Channel Standard

The embedded port also functions as a Simple Network Management Protocol

(SNMP) agent, a Fibre Channel name server, and an alias server to manage multicast

and broadcast functions.

Included with the switch is firmware that can be customized and tuned for each instal-

lation. Dell has provided a standard set of commands and interfaces described in

"PowerVault 56F Commands" of the Dell PowerVault 56F 16-Port Fibre Channel

Switch Installation and Troubleshooting Guide for switch monitoring, control, and

management.

The short-wave laser (SWL) fiber-optic GBIC module is based on short wavelength

850 nanometer (nm) lasers supporting 1.0625 gigabytes-per-second (Gbps) links

speeds.This GBIC module supports 50-micrometer and 62.5-micrometer multimode

fiber and is supported only in non-Open Fibre Connection (OFC) mode. 50/125-

micrometer cables up to 500 meters (m) in length and 62.5/125-micrometer cables up

to 175 m in length are supported.

NOTE: The SWL GBIC module uses a Class 1 CD laser, which complies with the 21

CFR, subpart (J) as of the date of manufacture.
