Software and Operating System Requirements
The hub does not require drivers or specific versions of operating systems. However,
systems and FC-AL devices that can connect to the hub do have driver and operating
system requirements. Contact an HP sales representative for information on hardware and
software requirements for the FC-AL devices you plan to connect to the hub.
Physical and Cabling Requirements
Note For short-wave ports, SC Connectors must be AMP multimode #504657-1 or
equivalent to meet FCC Part 15 standards. For long-wave ports, SC Connectors
must be AMP single-mode #504655-1 or equivalent to meet FCC Part 15
standards. Cable Plant Specifications on page 101 lists more requirements.
Model S10 Short-Wave Hub
The short-wave hub supports 10 non-OFC, short-wave FC-AL connections. In arbitrated
loop topology, data rates and wavelength between ports must be the same. The short-wave
hub supports only gigabit short-wave to gigabit short-wave connections using fiber cables.
For the short-wave hub, Hewlett-Packard recommends 50-micron multimode fiber cable
for new installations but also supports 62.5-micron multimode fiber cable with SC-style
connectors in existing installations. Installations can mix 50-micron and 62.5-micron
cables.
Model L10 Long-Wave Hub
The long-wave hub supports short-wave gigabit to short-wave gigabit connections from
ports 1 through 9 using fiber cables. The long-wave hub also supports a long-wave hub to
long-wave hub connection from the long-wave port.
