Fibre Channel switch-module
standards and protocols
(continued):
Fibre Channel protocols:
• Fibre Channel service
classes: Class 2 and
class 3.
• Operation modes: Fibre
Channel class 2 and class
3, connectionless.
• External port type:
— F_port.
— FL_port.
— E_port.
— Self-discovery based
on switch type U_port,
an optional port type.
• Internal port type: 2 Gbps
is the default setting.
• Port characteristics:
External ports are
automatically detected and
self-configuring.
• Number of Fibre Channel
ports: Two external ports
and 14 internal ports.
• Scalability: 239 switches
maximum depending on
your configuration.
Fibre Channel switch-module
standards and protocols
(continued):
Fibre Channel protocols
(continued):
• Buffer credits: 16 buffer
credits per port
• Media type: Small form-
factor pluggable (SFP)
module

bandwidth: 2 Gbps or 4
Gbps at full duplex
• Fabric aggregate
bandwidth: 64 Gbps if all
16 ports are running 2
Gbps at full duplex
