CONNECTRIX MP-7840B
Multi-protocol SAN Extension
Switch
MP-7840B
The Connectrix® MP-7840B SAN Extension Switch combines Fibre Channel
(FC) switching and routing capabilities with powerful hardware-assisted Fibre
Channel over Internet Protocol (FCIP) traffic forwarding over IP Wide Area
Networks (WAN). The MP-7840B is the next generation of the MP-7800B
FCIP Switch. The MP-7840B is a much higher bandwidth version of the MP7800B. The 2u MP-7840B has 24 16 Gigabits per second (Gb/s) Fibre
Channel ports and 16 1/10 Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) and 2 40GbE ports for
FCIP. The base chassis will come fully populated with twenty-four 16Gb
Short Wave Fibre Channel SFP’s. The 1/10 GbE and the 40GbE ports will
not be populated with SFP’s by default. Depending upon the optic types
selected and the WAN connectivity the MP-7840B can have up to 10 logical
FCIP tunnels with a maximum tunnel bandwidth of 20Gbps per tunnel and
the switch as a whole can scale up to 40Gbps of WAN/FCIP bandwidth.
