HP B-series 16Gb FC Switches Hardware Reference Guide

Services include Adaptive Networking with QoS, Extended Fabrics, Enhanced Group
Management, Fabric Watch, ISL Trunking, and APM.
Support for AG configuration where server ports connected to the fabric core will be virtualized.
Hardware zoning is accomplished at the port level of the switch and by WWN. Hardware
zoning permits or denies delivery of frames to any destination port address.
Extensive diagnostics and system-monitoring capabilities for enhanced RAS.
Real-time power monitoring enables users to monitor real-time power usage of the fabric at a
switch level.
Port-to-port latency minimized to 800 ns using cut-through frame routing at 16 Gb/s.
Platform components
A system motherboard that features a PowerPC 440EPx RISC CPU running at 667 MHz, with
integrated peripherals
An RJ-45 10/100 Base-T Ethernet system management port that supports switch IP address
discovery and configuration
One RS-232 serial port with an RJ-45 connector for initial switch setup and factory default
restoration (the integral LEDs remain unlit at all times)
A USB port that provides storage for firmware updates, supportsave command output, and
storage for configuration uploads and downloads
One power supply and fan assembly in the base model. There are two fans per assembly.
An optional second power supply and fan assembly is available for redundancy and hot-swap
capability
One LED (green/amber) per FC port to indicate status
One LED (green) for system power
One LED (green/amber) for system status
Two Ethernet port LEDs (integrated with RJ45) for speed and port activity. (A green LED for
port speed and an amber LED for port activity)
SEEPROM for switch identification
Voltage, fan, and temperature monitors
RTC with battery
