HP SN8000C Directors (MDS 95xx), C-series Family: технические характеристики и документация

HP SN8000C Directors (MDS 95xx), HP C-series Family

The HP C-series SN8000C Directors deliver many unique innovations for constructing powerful, large scale storage networks. With these innovations, users can build highly scalable, always available, high performance storage network solutions with comprehensive security and unified management. The SN8000C Directors have multiple layers of intelligence, including multi-protocol support (Fibre Channel and FCoE), Virtual SANs (VSANs), embedded diagnostics and role-based security.

The SN8000C Directors deliver industry-leading scalability and performance (up to 8.4 Terabits per second internal system bandwidth), high port density (up to 528-ports in an SN8000C 13-Slot Director) and high availability to lower TCO and enable integrated SAN infrastructures. HPE delivers the SN8000C Directors with high availability features inherent in the design. The base units include a 6 or 13 slot modular chassis with dual supervisor 2A modules and power supplies to help ensure smooth, continuous operation and non-disruptive upgrade capability. The SN8000C 13-Slot Director also includes dual Fabric3 Modules making even the backplane fabric both redundant and hot-swappable, thereby taking fabric availability to a higher plane. The open expansion slots of the SN8000C Directors can be filled by optional MDS 9000 Family Modules, which include 32 and 48 port 8Gb Advanced Fibre Channel Modules. These MDS 9000 modules are interchangeable across SN8000C, providing a smooth migration path, common sparing and investment protection.

Layered, intelligent features also include integration with fabric-based applications to fabric-wide services for a wide range of
solutions for business continuance, storage virtualization, network assisted backup and information life cycle management.

NOTES:

1. Dimension convention is as follows:

• H (Height) is the vertical dimension when looking at the front of the component, as it would be seen in the chassis. Exception is the compact flash where H is when looking at the identification label on the part.
• W (Width) is the horizontal (left to right) dimension when looking at the front of the component, as it would be seen in the
  chassis. Exception is the compact flash where W is when looking at the identification label on the part.
• D (Depth) is the front to back dimension when looking at the front of the component, as it would be seen in the chassis.
  Exception is the compact flash where D is when looking at the identification label on the part.

2. Packaging dimensions are reference as if you were looking at the front of the chassis in the packaging, if you could see through the packaging.
