Cascaded Long-Wave Hub Topology
Cascaded FC-AL, non-OFC, model L10 long-wave hubs use the long-wave port for the hub-
to-hub connection. The maximum supported distance between cascaded long-wave hubs
with single-mode 9 micron cable is 3 km. The maximum distance between a server and FC-
AL devices on cascaded long-wave hubs is, therefore, 4000 meters (500 m + 3000 m +
500 m). Under certain conditions, cascaded long-wave hubs are supported up to 10,000
meters (10 km) (see page 105 for more information). The 10-km capability only applies to
long-wave hubs connected to HP-UX servers.
Caution When cascading long-wave hubs, only connect long-wave ports to long-wave
ports or short-wave ports to short-wave ports.
Ports 1 through 9 on each long-wave hub are for connections to FC-AL devices. Ports 1
through 9 can also be used in a cascaded configuration; however, the maximum distance
between hubs decreases from 3000 meters to 500 meters.
