HPE SN8500C/SN8700C 48-Port 32Gb Fibre Channel Director Module - For Data Networking, Optical Network - 48 x Fiber Channel Network - Optical Fiber32 Gigabit Ethernet - Fiber Channel
Key Features | Lower TCO with SAN Consolidation
The HPE C-series SN8700C Director Switch lets you easily consolidate data assets into fewer, larger, and more manageable SANs to reduce your hardware footprint and associated Capital Expenditures (CAPEX) and Operating Expenses (OPEX).
It provides up to 24 terabits per second (Tb/s) of FC system bandwidth and 768 (16 slots) or 384 (8 slots) or 192 (4 slots) 16/32/64 Gb/s in a single chassis.
Existing 16/32 Gbps customers can transparently move to 32/64 Gbps speeds without the need for a major equipment upgrade as the 48-port 32 Gbps FC Switching module or 64 Gbps FC Switch module (when available) can easily be inserted into existing HPE C-series SN8700C Directors.
It provides line-rate, nonblocking and predictable performance for all traffic conditions for every port up to the future 64 Gbps speed in the chassis.
It offers VSAN technology, access control lists (ACLs) for hardware-based intelligent frame processi
