64-port, high-performance 2 Gb FC director switch
The HP StorageWorks Director 2/64 is a 64-port, high-performance Fibre Channel (FC)
director switch that supports 2 Gbps and 1 Gbps mixed environments. The Director
2/64 provides the availability, manageability, scalability, and performance that
companies need to build powerful, flexible storage area networks (SANs) and
consolidate data access. A SAN with a Director 2/64 at the core keeps pace with
exponential storage growth and can evolve to meet even unexpected business
opportunities.
The Director 2/64 is easier to implement and manage and offers higher availability than
any other switching device available. It ensures data is continuously online with the
highest level of availability on the market: 99.999%.
