3Introduisez le câble dans un module SFP installé dans la matrice de stockage. Le connecteur de câble est muni d'un détrompeur pour une installation correcte. Tout en maintenant le connecteur, enfoncez-y le câble jusqu'à ce qu'il s'enclenche.

4Retirez les deux caches protecteurs de l'autre extrémité du câble et rangez- les pour un usage ultérieur.

5Connectez cette extrémité du câble à un des périphériques suivants :

Un module SFP installé dans un port de commutateur FC

Un port HBA FC

Pour retirer un câble FC :

1Appuyez sur le levier et maintenez la pression pour libérer les loquets avant de retirer le câble du module SFP. Assurez-vous que les leviers sont en position ouverte lors du retrait du câble. Ne saisissez pas la languette en plastique du module SFP lors du retrait du câble.

2À l'extrémité du câble connecté au module SFP ou HBA, appuyez sur le levier et maintenez la pression pour libérer les loquets.

3Tout en appuyant sur le levier du câble, tirez sur le connecteur pour retirer le câble du module SFP.

4Réinstallez les caches de protection sur les extrémités du câble.

5Réinstallez le cache de protection sur le module SFP.

MD3620F, MD3600f specifications

Dell's MD3620F and MD3600F storage arrays are designed for businesses seeking dependable, high-performance storage solutions tailored to meet the demands of modern data management. These models offer a blend of scalability, efficiency, and advanced features, making them well-suited for a range of applications, from virtual environments to critical database operations.

One of the primary features of the MD3620F and MD3600F is their support for a hybrid storage architecture. This approach allows organizations to combine flash storage with traditional hard disk drives (HDDs) to optimize performance and cost. The MD3620F focuses heavily on all-flash configurations, delivering exceptional speed and lower latency, ideal for I/O-intensive workloads.

Scalability is another hallmark of these storage solutions. The MD3600F allows users to scale up to 120 drives, providing robust capacity to meet growing data needs. The MD3620F is engineered for environments where data availability and speed are paramount, with support for high IOPS (Input/Output Operations Per Second) and consistent performance under stress.

In terms of data management, both systems integrate with Dell’s proprietary software, which enhances operational efficiency through features like automated tiering. This technology optimizes data placement between different storage types based on access frequency, ensuring that hot data is readily available while reducing costs associated with less critical data.

Reliability is crucial for businesses that depend on their storage systems. The MD3620F and MD3600F come equipped with advanced data protection mechanisms, such as RAID support, which safeguards against data loss, and snapshot capabilities that provide point-in-time copies of data. Moreover, these solutions include hot-swappable components, ensuring minimal downtime for maintenance and repairs.

Connectivity is also a strong suit of these storage arrays. They support multiple connectivity options, including SAS and iSCSI, allowing for flexible integration into existing IT infrastructures. This adaptability enhances their appeal to a wide range of enterprise environments.

In summary, the Dell MD3620F and MD3600F stand out as robust storage solutions with a combination of hybrid and all-flash configurations, scalability, advanced data management tools, and enhanced reliability features. These characteristics make them ideal for organizations looking to enhance their data storage capabilities while maintaining high performance and efficiency.
