HPE SN6010C 16Gb Fibre Channel Switch (MDS9148S)

HPE SN6010C 16Gb Fibre Channel Switch (MDS9148S)

The SN6010C 16Gb Fabric Switch (MDS 9148S) is a high-performance, flexible, cost-effective platform providing high-density, line-rate16-Gbps ports for storage networking deployments in small, medium-sized, and large enterprise environments. The SN6010C switch offers outstanding value by providing high-availability, flexibility, and ease of use at a cost-effective price in a compact one-rack-unit (1RU) form factor. With the ability to expand from 12 to 48 ports in 12-port increments, the SN6010C offers the densities required to scale from an entry-level departmental switch to top-of-rack switch to edge connectivity in enterprise SANs. The SN6010C delivers a non-blocking architecture, with all 48 16-Gbps ports operating at line rate concurrently.

The SN6010C supports the C-series Device Manager quick configuration wizard, which allows it to be deployed quickly and easily in networks of any size. Powered by C-series MDS 9000 NX-OS Software, it includes storage networking features and functions and is compatible with C-series SN8000C (MDS 9500) and SN8500C (MDS 9700) Series Multilayer Directors and C-series MDS 9100 and 9200 Series Multilayer Fabric Switches, providing transparent, end-to-end service delivery in core-edge deployments.
