Both switches deliver eight (upgradeable to16) high performance Auto Sensing 1, 2, and 4GB/s Fibre Channel ports.

The 4/8 Base model provides single-switch connectivity for a new, simple SAN installation and connects to storage and servers only. The 4/8 SAN Switch scales to full SAN configurations defined in the SAN Design Guide. Small-form-factor-pluggable optical transceivers (SFPs) must be ordered separately. Features
