HP DC SAN Director 16 Inter-Chassis Link LTU
TA641A
Inter Chassis Links (ICLs) harness unused ports to connect the
switching backplane of one DC SAN Backbone with the switching
backplane of a second DC SAN Backbone Director or DC04 SAN
Director. Each ICL connection is the equivalent of 16 fixed speed
8Gbit/sec E_PORTs. This additional full duplex connection provides
an additional 1 Tbit/sec of bandwidth and does not consume usable
ports. ICL connections operate as hardware trunked ISLs.
NOTE:
Each DC SAN Director requires a license for ICL connectivity.
TA641A is only supported on DC SAN Backbone Director. HP DC SAN
Director ICL Cable Kit (AR480A) is required for the physical
connection.
A maximum of
three DC SAN
Directors may be
connected using
ICL connectivity
HP DC SAN Director 8 Inter-Chassis Link LTU
TA642A
With the 8 port ICL licenses you could connect up to 3 DC04 directors,
or 3 DC SAN Backbone
Directors' at half the available bandwidth, or any combination of
above models totaling 3. Each ICL connection is the equivalent of 8
fixed speed 8Gbit/sec E_PORTs. This additional full duplex
connection provides an additional 512 Gbit/sec of bandwidth and
does not consume usable ports. ICL connections operate as hardware
trunked ISLs.
NOTE:
Each DC SAN Director requires a license for ICL connectivity.
TA642A is supported on DC SAN Backbone Director or DC04 SAN
Director. HP DC SAN Director ICL Cable Kit (AR480A) is required for the
physical connection.
A maximum of
three DC SAN
Directors may be
