Product Features
The SV Router FC-FC 3 represents true virtualization of the SAN. Each SV Router FC-FC 3
maintains a record of how all the drives in the SAN have been configured. All SV Router FC-
FC 3 units in a SAN can communicate with each other, and they share this drive information.
If one SV Router FC-FC 3 fails, the other SV Routers in the SAN can take over.
The SV Router FC-FC 3 also has power-loss detection capabilities; if the SV Router FC-FC 3
loses external power, it saves a copy of all critical information to non-volatile memory.
The SV Router FC-FC 3 acts as an initiator and a target simultaneously.
• The host side of the SV Router FC-FC 3 acts as a target and receives commands sent
by the host.
• The device side of the SV Router FC-FC 3 acts as an initiator and sends commands to
the drives.
