MSA Fibre Channel I/O

Module

Provides a single 2 Gb Fibre Channel connection per controller from the host side into the MSA1000. The MSA Fibre

Channel I/O Module includes one 2 Gb, Short Wave, Small-Form-Factor-pluggable Transceiver (SFP). A second MSA

Fibre Channel I/O Module can be installed for redundancy when a redundant controller is used.

The single I/O module can be used in a direct connect configuration (no switch or hub) in Windows, Linux, NetWare

only.

MSA SAN Switch 2/8

(embedded)

The optional MSA SAN Switch 2/8 offers low price per port and full scalability, doing so while taking zero rack space,

even in a redundant configuration. This second generation integrated switch option offers the customer more ports

than our previous offering and is a full member of the HP SAN Switch family, assuring interoperability from the

smallest to the largest SAN configuration. The HP StorageWorks MSA SAN Switch 2/8 can be used by the true entry-

level customer looking for a very inexpensive switch based on cost per port. This same switch can be attractive to

the larger customer who must have the interoperability with their other external B-Series SAN switch products from

HP and especially appreciates the rack space saving characteristics.

(The MSA SAN Switch 2/8 replaced the obsolete MSA Fabric Switch 6 option.)

Key Features

Eight 2 Gb ports: 1 to controller, 7 user accessible

Product ships with 4 SFPs installed

No E-port restriction, accepts all optional software

Interoperates with external HP B-Series SAN Switch 2 Gb switches

Configuration and management methodology common with SAN Switch product

line, same methods as installed base of 30,000+ HP 1 and 2Gb SAN Switches

MSA Hub 2/3

(embedded)

The HP StorageWorks MSA Hub 2/3 is a low-cost interconnect designed for clustering or low cost, high speed

attachment of two servers to the MSA1000. The MSA Hub 2/3 is a 3-port Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loop hub that is

mounted on a blade that easily installs inside the MSA1000 storage unit, saving valuable rack space. Two of these

hubs may be installed for redundancy within the MSA1000. The MSA Hub 2/3 is not cascadable. It is not presently

certified for Alpha or HP-UX environments.

The hub presents the user with two SFP ports for simple direct attachment to two single or clustered servers without

having to purchase an external interconnect device. It offers the most cost-effective solution for a user to enable a

clustered server environment.

High Performance: supports MSA1000 with a 2 Gb interconnect capable of 200 MB speed

Low Cost: supports the entry-level SAN array with the most cost effective option for 2-node clustering

Compact: imbeds in the MSA1000, replacing the I/O module, saving valuable rack space

Complete: comes with two SW SFPs - no need for further investment

Not qualified with servers utilizing HP-UX, Tru64 UNIX or OpenVMS operating systems at this time.

2 Gb Small Form Factor

pluggable (SFP) SW

Transceiver Kit

2 Gb Small-Form-Factor-pluggable (SFP) SW Transceivers are industry standard connection devices, which hot plug

into 2 Gb infrastructure components such as 2 Gb Fabric Switches. HP StorageWorks 2 Gb SFP SW Transceivers

support distances up to 300 meters at 2 Gb and 500 meters at 1 Gb using multi-mode fiber optic cable.

Multi-Mode Fibre Channel

Cables

Multi-Mode Fibre Channel cables provide a thin, flexible cabling solution that is immune to electromagnetic

interference. HP offers cables to connect the MSA1000 to both 2 Gb and 1 Gb Fibre Channel infrastructures. LC to

LC cables are used when connecting the MSA1000 to other 2 Gb Fibre Channel components because both

connections will utilize small form factor transceivers. LC to SC cables are used when connecting the MSA1000 to 1

Gb Fibre Channel components. 1 Gb components use the larger GBIC style transceivers.
