•
VF support improves isolation between VFs.
•
FCR service, available with the optional Integrated Routing license, provides improved
scalability and fault isolation.
•
FICON, FICON Cascading, and FICON CUP ready.
•
ISL Trunking (licensable), which allows up to eight ports (at 4, 8, or 16 Gb/s) between a pair
of switches combined to form a single, logical ISL with a speed of up to 128 Gb/s (256 Gb/s
full duplex) for optimal bandwidth utilization and load balancing.
•
DPS, which optimizes fabric-wide performance and load balancing by automatically routing
data to the most efficient available path in the fabric.
•
HP-branded SFP+ optical transceivers that support any combination of SWL and LWL or ELWL
optical media among the switch ports.
•
Support for unicast, multicast (255 groups), and broadcast data traffic types.
•
Fabric OS delivers distributed intelligence throughout the network and enables a wide range
of value-added applications such as Advanced Web Tools and Zoning. Optional Fabric
Services include Adaptive Networking with QoS, Extended Fabrics, Enhanced Group
Management, Fabric Watch, ISL Trunking, and APM.
•
Support for AG configuration where server ports connected to the fabric core are virtualized.
•
Hardware zoning is accomplished at the port level of the switch and by WWN. Hardware
zoning permits or denies delivery of frames to any destination port address.
•
Extensive diagnostics and system-monitoring capabilities for enhanced high RAS.
•
10 Gb/s FC integration on the same port provides DWDM metro connectivity on the same
switch (can be done on the first eight ports only).
•
Real-time power monitoring enables monitoring the fabric power usage at a switch level.
•
Port-to-port latency minimized to 800 nanoseconds through cut-through frame routing at 16
Gb/s.
Platform components
•
A system motherboard that features a PowerPC 440EPx RISC CPU running at 667 MHz, with
integrated peripherals, and provides high performance with low power consumption.
•
An RJ-45 10/100 Base-T Ethernet system management port that supports switch IP address
discovery and configuration.
•
One RS-232 serial port with an RJ-45 connector for initial switch setup and factory default
restoration. (The integral LEDs remain unlit at all times.)
•
A USB port that provides storage for firmware updates,
supportsave
command output, and
storage for configuration uploads and downloads.
•
Two hot-swappable, redundant power supply and fan assemblies. There are two fans per
power supply.
•
Designed for rack mounting in a 19-inch EIA rack (1U high).
•
One LED (green/amber) per FC port to indicate status.
•
One LED (green) for system power.
•
One LED (green/amber) for system status.
•
Two Ethernet LEDs (integrated with RJ-45) for speed and activity status.
•
SEEPROM for switch identification.
