Figure 3 shows an EMA12000 modular building block that supports a DRM solution. The
modular SBB consists of the controller enclosure and the disk enclosure. The redundant power
distribution unit is also shown.

Switches are placed in a different rack in this configuration of the EMA12000 D14
high-performance modular storage rack. A command center rack can be used to contain the
switches.
Fibre Channel Switches
The Fibre Channel switches shown in Figure 4 through Figure 7 illustrate four models of SAN
switches used to connect the controllers to the hosts and to link the initiator and target sites
together. Three switch product lines are supported with DRM:
■ B-series switches
■ C-series switches
■ M-series switches
The ports hold shortwave, longwave, or very long distance gigabit interface converters
(GBICs), which are described in the next section.
