Architecture
The 2Gb Fibre Channel interface provides a 360MB/s available transfer rate to the disk drives and is backward compatible with 1Gb Fibre Channel drives, protecting the customer’s legacy investments. Dual paths to all devices ensures that the customer’s data is protected from channel failures and high availability is achieved by utilizing fully redundant, hot-swappable disk drives, Fibre Channel loop resiliency modules, power supplies and fan assemblies.

  FC-AL Single loop 1Gb, with DB9 or SC Optical connections.
  FC-AL Single or Dual Loop 1Gb/2Gb, with Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP) interfaces providing LC Optical (and HSSDC-2 Cu when available)
  RAID: full function 1Gb/1Gb (Single or dual controllers with integrated Hub function for failover)
  RAID: full function 2Gb/2Gb with dual host ports per controller, single or dual controllers, and integrated hub function
