Sun StorEdge Network FC Switch-8 and Switch-16 Switch Description

The Sun StorEdge network FC switch-8 and switch-16 switches provide cable consolidation and increased connectivity for the internal data interconnection infrastructure.

The switches are paired to provide redundancy. Two switches are used in each Sun StorEdge 3900 series, and four switches are used in each Sun StorEdge 6900 series. Each Sun StorEdge network FC switch-8 and switch-16 switch is connected by way of an Ethernet to the service network for management and service from the Storage Service Processor.
