In the computer storage field, a Fibre Channel switch is a network switch compatible with the Fibre Channel (FC) protocol. It allows the creation of a Fibre Channel fabric, that is the core component of a storage area network (SAN). The fabric is a network of Fibre Channel devices which allows many-to-many communication, device name lookup, security, and redundancy. FC switches implement zoning, a mechanism that disables unwanted traffic between certain fabric nodes. Major manufacturers of Fibre Channel switches include Brocade(Broadcom), Cisco Systems, and QLogic(Marvell).

  • In the computer storage field, a Fibre Channel switch is a network switch compatible with the Fibre Channel (FC) protocol. It allows the creation of a Fibre Channel fabric, that is the core component of a storage area network (SAN). The fabric is a network of Fibre Channel devices which allows many-to-many communication, device name lookup, security, and redundancy. FC switches implement zoning, a mechanism that disables unwanted traffic between certain fabric nodes. Fibre Channel switches may be deployed one at a time or in larger multi-switch configurations. SAN administrators typically add new switches as their server and storage needs grow, connecting switches together via fiber optic cable using the standard device ports. Some switch vendors offer dedicated high-speed stacking ports to handle inter-switch connections (similar to existing stackable Ethernet switches), allowing high-performance multi-switch configurations to be created using fewer switches overall. Major manufacturers of Fibre Channel switches include Brocade(Broadcom), Cisco Systems, and QLogic(Marvell). (en)
  • Un Fibre Channel switch è un dispositivo utilizzato nelle Storage Area Network per interconnettere gli Host Bus Adapter (HBA) operanti in Fibre Channel alle unità di storage. Ha funzionalità simili a quelle in uno switch di rete ethernet ma opera sul protocollo Fibre Channel. Consente la creazione di che sono alla base della maggior parte delle attuali storage area network. La fabric è una rete di dispositivi Fibre Channel che permette una comunicazione molti a molti, l'identificazione dei dispositivi, la sicurezza e la ridondanza. I Fibre Channel switch implementano lo zoning per impedire il traffico non voluto fra i dispositivi e le HBA impedendo così, ad esempio, ad un server di accedere ad una risorsa di rete non dedicata a lui. Un Fibre Channel switch con almeno 128 porte normalmente viene chiamato Fibre Channel director anche se le funzionalità offerte sono le medesime offerte da uno switch più piccolo. I principali produttori di Fibre Channel switch sono , Cisco e . (it)
