Managed. Switching capacity: 8 Gbit/s. 1U Stackable. Power supply included. HP SN6000 Stackable 8Gb Fibre Channel Switches make Enterprise SANs affordable, manageable, and easy-to-grow as more FC ports are needed. The low-cost and high-performance SN6000 are available in single-and dual power versions and start at 12 active FC ports expandable to 20.. Easily add new FC ports and switches for up to 120 usable device ports per stack (single manageable unit), or 500+ ports in multi-stack topologies. (4) High-speed 10 Gb/s linking ports upgradeable to 20Gb/s allow easy stacking of SN6000s.. Included SAN Connection Manager (SCM) Software uses a simple topology view of the SAN to manage switches, HBAs and provision storage from a one screen. SCM plus HP Virtual Connect and HP VCEM simplifies SAN management for virtual server deployment in the Converged Infrastructure.. Transparent Router offers non-disruptive access to servers and storage on HP B-series and C-series SANs. The SN6000 makes it easy to extend the solution lifespan while preserving investments.. Features. Build a Scalable SAN with Less Hardware and Less Complexity. 8 to 20 enabled 8 Gb/s ports (Single power supply) model, and 20 enabled 8 Gb/s ports (dual power supply) model for high availability.. No need to waste FC device ports for ISL connections as is the case for competitor's switches. Each 10 Gb/s / 20 Gb/s Stacking (ISL) port, unique to the SN6000, provides 3X the bandwidth of a device port for industry leading performance.. Easily scale and stack up to six SN6000 8Gb FC Switches for 120 ports and manage as a single logical unit. Multi-stack topologies of SN6000 switches support large enterprise SANs with >500+ device ports.. The simplicity of the SN6000 to add FC ports easily scales from SMB to enterprise, which allows SN6000 stacking 8Gb switches to provide significant cost savings compared to more expensive FC directors for core switching applications.. Stacking enables networks with simpler top
