Building  an  end-to-end  SAN

 

requires  you  to  cope  with  server  connectivity,  the  switched 

fabric  connecting  servers  to  storage  and  the  network  services  that  run  on  the  SAN. That’s 

why  deploying  end-to-end  SAN  infrastructure  is  the  intelligent  approach.  Only  QLogic  

delivers  this  end-to-end  SAN  infrastructure.  Only  QLogic  provides  everything  you  need  to  

install,  configure  and  operate  a  world-class  SAN,  from  host  bus  adapters  (HBAs)  to  switches 

to intelligent storage routers. Of course, if you enjoy rolling up your sleeves and wading into 

complex,  costly  integration  projects,  then  choosing  separate  SAN  switch,  HBA  and  router  

vendors may be your cup of tea. But if you have better things to do with your time and money, 

QLogic is for you.
