The bundle can consist of any speed-matched ports in the chassis, helping ensure that the bundle can remain active in the event of a port or module failure.\u003cbr\u003eIt provides outstanding high availability, helping ensure that solutions exceed the maximum uptime requirements of today’s most-demanding environments.\u003ch4\u003eEasy Manageability\u003c\/h4\u003eThe HPE Storage Director Switch C-series SN8700C supports enhanced diagnostic features such as inter-switch link (ISL) and host-bus-adapter (HBA) diagnostics, read diagnostic parameters, link cable beacon, and advanced reliability features such as forward error correction (FEC) with HBA ports.\u003cbr\u003eCisco Nexus Dashboard Fabric Controller (NDFC), formerly DCNM, provides a centralized management tool with task-based wizards that simplifies management of switches and fabrics. Additional advanced features are available with the Advantage and Premier Subscription licenses, sold separately.\u003cbr\u003eCisco Data Center Network Manager (DCNM) is renamed as Cisco Nexus Dashboard Fabric Controller (NDFC) from release 12.0.1a.\u003cbr\u003eCisco SAN Insights delivers deep visibility into I\/O traffic between the compute and the storage infrastructure. This information is in addition to the already-available visibility obtained from individual ports, switches, servers, virtual machines, and storage arrays.\u003ch4\u003eFully Integrated SAN Analytics (HPE C-series SAN Insights or HPE C-series Premier license)\u003c\/h4\u003eThe HPE Storage Director Switch C-series SN8700C offers state-of-the-art SAN analytics and telemetry capabilities that have been built into this next-generation hardware platform.\u003cbr\u003eIt inspects I\/O flows to bring out a unified view of the infrastructure irrespective of the architecture or vendor of storage arrays, servers, or operating systems.\u003cbr\u003eThe telemetry data extracted from the inspection of the frame headers are calculated on board (within the director module) and, using an industry-leading open format, can be streamed to any analytics-visualization platform.\u003cbr\u003eSAN Analytics can be integrated with and visualized by using the advanced features of Nexus Dashboard Fabric Controller (NDFC).\u003ch2\u003eDescription\u003c\/h2\u003eAre you looking to modernize your storage area network? Today’s mission-critical storage environments require greater consistency, predictability, and performance to keep pace with growing business demands. Faced with explosive data growth, data centers need more I\/O capacity to accommodate the massive amounts of data, applications, and workloads. The HPE Storage Director Switch C-series SN8700C is a director-class SAN switch designed for deployment in small to medium-sized storage networks to support enterprise clouds and business transformation. It layers a comprehensive set of intelligent features onto a high-performance, protocol-independent switch fabric. The HPE Storage Director Switch C-series SN8700C enables enterprise clouds, transforms large storage area networks, lowers operating costs, and deploys Fibre Channel (FC) and IBM Fibre Connectivity (FICON) on a single fabric.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhat is new supporting point:\u003cbr\u003e64Gb FC modules without transceivers or fully populated with 64Gb SFP+ transceivers\u003cbr\u003e64Gb FC short wave SFP+ transceiver\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable class=\"generic\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003cth colspan=\"2\" class=\"text-left\"\u003eSecurity\u003c\/th\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSecurity algorithms\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSNMPv3\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003cth colspan=\"2\" class=\"text-left\"\u003eProtocols\u003c\/th\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSupported protocols\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFibre Channel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003cth colspan=\"2\" class=\"text-left\"\u003ePerformance\u003c\/th\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMedia types supported\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSupports 64Gb, 32Gb,16Gb and 8Gb transceivers\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003cth colspan=\"2\" class=\"text-left\"\u003ePower\u003c\/th\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRedundant power supply (RPS) support\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003cth colspan=\"2\" class=\"text-left\"\u003eOther features\u003c\/th\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUpgrade type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eActivate additional ports using 48-port Fibre Channel modules\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTechnical features\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOnline, nondisruptive software upgrades, stateful nondisruptive supervisor module failover, hot-swappable redundant supervisor modules, hot-swappable redundant fabric modules, hot- swappable and redundant power supplies, hot-swappable fan trays with integrated temperature and power management, hot-swappable SFP+ optics, hot-swappable Fibre Channel modules, stateful process restart and failover\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePort speed rating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e64Gb or 32Gb\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOptional software\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEnterprise Package license, Cisco Nexus Dashboard Fabric Controller (NDFC) license, SAN Insights (1\/3\/5 yrs), Advantage license (1\/3\/5 yrs), Premier license (1\/3\/5 yrs)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSupported protocols\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFibre Channel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003cth colspan=\"2\" class=\"text-left\"\u003eWeight \u0026amp;
