Full redundancy of all major components for a new standard in Fabric Switch availability.
Enables a consistent feature set over a protocol agnostic switch fabric
Seamlessly integrates Fibre Channel, iSCSI, and FCIP in one system
Allows integration of future storage protocols with its flexible architecture
Provides industry-first intelligent diagnostics, including Fibre Channel ping and trace route, SPAN,
protocol analysis and decoding, Zone and VSAN merge analysis.
Allows users to aggregate up to 16 physical links into one logical bundle. The bundle can consist of any
port in the chassis, ensuring that the bundle remains active in the event of a port, ASIC, or module
failure. The bundle can sustain the failure of any physical link without causing a reset. Additionally,
Fabric Shortest Path First (FSPF) multipathing provides the intelligence to load balance across up to 16
equal cost paths and, in the event of a switch failure, to dynamically reroute traffic.
Hardware-based intelligent frame processing.
