High-Density 48/48 Port Configuration
The Q0U59A HPE StoreFabric SN6600B is a high-density Fibre Channel switch that has a 48/48 port configuration. This means it has 48 Fibre Channel ports on the front of the switch and 48 Fibre Channel ports on the back of the switch. The 32GB 48/48 Power Pack+ version of the switch is designed for use in high-performance data center environments and supports data transfer rates of up to 32 Gbps per port. The switch also supports full non-blocking architecture and has a high-performance ASIC for efficient data processing. Additionally, The switch support SAN extension, SAN consolidation, and SAN virtualization with low latency and high throughput.
Advanced Traffic Management
The Q0U59A HPE StoreFabric SN6600B is a Fibre Channel switch that supports advanced traffic management features to help ensure that data is transmitted efficiently and securely. Some of the traffic management features that are available on this switch include:
- Quality of Service (QoS): The switch supports different levels of QoS, which allows administrators to prioritize certain types of traffic, such as storage traffic or data replication traffic, over other types of traffic.
- Flow Control: The switch supports flow control, which helps to prevent data loss and network congestion by controlling the rate at which data is transmitted.
- Port-based VLANs: The switch supports port-based VLANs, which allow administrators to segment the network into different logical subnets and control which devices can communicate with each other.
- Link Aggregation: The switch supports link aggregation, which allows multiple physical links to be combined into a single logical link to increase bandwidth and redundancy.
- Security: The switch supports advanced security features such as FC-SP (Fibre Channel Security Protocol) and FCoE (Fibre Channel over Ethernet) to secure your data and protect it from unauthorized access.
- Advanced Management: The switch supports advanced management features like SNMP, CLI, Web GUI, and a centralized management software.
- High Availability: The switch supports a variety of high-availability features such as Fabric Shortest Path First (FSPF) and Fabric Failover (FFO) to minimize downtime and ensure high availability.
It’s worth noting that the specific features and capabilities may vary depending on the firmware version and specific configuration of the switch.
Small Form-Factor Pluggable Plus (SFP+) and QSFP+ Ports
SFP+ (Small Form-Factor Pluggable Plus) and QSFP+ (Quad Small Form-Factor Pluggable Plus) are types of transceiver modules used to connect network devices to fiber or copper networks. SFP+ is a smaller form factor of the SFP transceiver and supports data rates of up to 10 Gbps. QSFP+ is an even larger form factor and supports data rates of up to 40 Gbps. The Q0U59A StoreFabric SN6600B is a Fibre Channel switch that supports both SFP+ and QSFP+ ports. These ports allow the switch to connect to other Fibre Channel devices or networks using the appropriate transceiver modules.
