Fibre Channel
Fibre Channel is a high-speed network technology primarily used for connecting computer data storage to servers. It is designed to handle large amounts of data and is commonly used in storage area networks (SANs). With speeds ranging from 1 Gbps to 128 Gbps, it provides reliable and efficient data transfer, making it suitable for enterprise environments.
The technology operates over various media types, including copper and fiber optic cables, allowing for flexible deployment options. Fibre Channel supports multiple topologies, such as point-to-point, arbitrated loop, and switched fabric, ensuring scalability and performance in data-intensive applications.
