Each non-redundant FC-AL consists of the following hardware:
■ One Fibre Host Adapter in each node
■ One Storage Hub or FC-AL Switch
■ One or more RA4000/RA4100 Arrays, each containing one single-port
RA4000 Array Controller
■ A GBIC-SW module installed in each Fibre Host Adapter, each active
port on the Storage Hub or FC-AL Switch, and each array controller
■ Fibre Channel cables used to connect the Fibre Host Adapter in each
node to the Storage Hub or FC-AL Switch and the Storage Hub or
FC-AL Switch to each array controller
