Overview

Optical Ports

The SAN Switch 2/8 optical ports support link speeds up to 2 Gbps. Each port automatically negotiates to the highest common speed of all devices connected. Additionally, the switch supports F_port, FL_port, and E_port connections and Distributed Name Server (DNS).

The ports are color-coded into two groups of four, to indicate which ports are used in the same ISL Trunking group. Each port conforms to the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) Fibre Channel, FC-PI specification for Fibre Channel SFP transceivers.

ISL Trunking

ISL trunking is an optional Fabric OS feature that enables distribution of traffic over the combined bandwidth of up to four ISLs between two directly adjacent switches, while preserving in-order delivery. For specific information about ISL trunking, refer to the hp StorageWorks ISL Trunking V3.0.x/V4.0.x User Guide.

SFPs

The ports connect to SFP media. SFPs are universal and self-configuring.
