Fibre Channel-Arbitrated Loop
The Fibre Channel-Arbitrated Loop (FC-AL) is an ANSI
standard (X3T11) product designed to provide shared
bandwidth over low-cost media. Early adapters primarily
use the SCSI protocol transported over Fibre Channel for
distributed server and storage-cluster applications. The
Fibre Channel Hub is a central point of interconnection
designed to maintain a fault-tolerant physical loop
topology. The Fibre Channel Hub can also be used to
implement configurations which extend the size of the
FC-AL loop to its maximum size of 127 active loop ports
(includes one optional Fabric-Loop port).
