Integrates 1, 2, 4, and 8 Gb/s autosensing Fibre Channel switch and router ports.
•
Includes a system motherboard that features a Freescale MPC8548 RISC CPU running at 1.3 GHz
with integrated peripherals that provides high performance with low power consumption.
•
Ships FICON and FICON Cascading ready. FICON CUP is available, but requires an optional

•
Provides three hot-swappable fan FRUs in an N+1 configuration to provide hardware-redundant
cooling.
•
Provides universal ports that self-configure as E_Ports, F_Ports, M_Ports, or FL_Ports. EX_Ports are
activated on a per-port basis with the optional HP B-series 48-80 Port SAN Switch Integrated
Routing LTU.
This license provides native FCR on a per-port basis, rather than limiting routing ports to those on
a dedicated routing blade or switch. Just like traditional FCR, Integrated Routing uses EX_Ports to
import and export devices between fabrics, enabling selective device sharing while maintaining
remote fabric isolation.
•
Integrates a USB port that provides storage for firmware updates, output of the
supportsave
command, and storage for configuration uploads and downloads.
