Description
Overview
As the world embraces digital business, data is becoming more valuable than ever. The expectation to access this data anytime, anywhere, on any device is pushing infrastructure to its limits. IT organisations are under pressure to keep pace with the growing avalanche of data and ensure their valuable information is protected from disaster. Any loss of critical data can lead directly to lost revenue or damage to a company’s brand reputation. To protect data from disaster, storage administrators need a way to achieve sufficient long-distance replication performance, keep data flowing over unreliable WAN connections, and protect data in transit while controlling the cost of devices and long-distance connections. The HPE Storage SAN Extension Switch B-Series SN2600B addresses these challenges by providing a modern replication connectivity solution that cost-effectively and quickly replicates data between sites for fast, continuous data protection. The HPE Storage SAN Extension Switch B-Series SN2600B is a powerful, reliable, and secure switch that handles continuous data transfers between data centres, minimises the impact of disruptions to maintain service level agreements (SLAs), and ensures the security of data transfers between data centres. The switch has inbuilt technology to overcome the latency and packet loss inherent in long distance transmission. It significantly improves replication performance and enables organisations to significantly reduce costs by deploying lower-cost WAN connectivity. The HPE Storage SAN Extension Switch B-Series SN2600B is a cost-effective solution for securely transferring data over long distances at faster speeds for continuous data protection. This powerful, reliable and secure platform is designed to handle the growing volume of data traffic between data centres in Fibre Channel and IP storage environments. The HPE Storage SAN Extension Switch B-Series SN2600B is a powerful platform for mid-sized, multi-site data centre environments implementing disk and tape data protection solutions. The HPE Storage SAN Extension Switch B-Series SN2600B is well suited for:
– Multi-site synchronous and asynchronous storage replication
– Centralised tape backup, recovery and archiving
The HPE Storage SAN Extension Switch B Series SN2600B base configuration provides four 32 Gb/s Fibre Channel ports and two 1GbE Ethernet ports with adaptive rate limiting (ARL) and encryption (IPsec). Upgrade-on-demand licences support all 12 Fibre Channel ports, 10Gb FCIP/FC, Fabric Vision technology, Extended Trunking, Fibre Channel Trunking and Integrated Routing (FCR). The Complete Configuration is a comprehensive bundle that supports all ports, including Brocade Fabric Vision Technology, Extended Trunking, Fibre Channel Trunking, ARL, IPsec, and Integrated Routing.
