{"product_id":"3552290","title":"HP 8\/24 Base (16) Full Fabric Ports Enabled SAN Switch","description":"The HP 8\/24 SAN switch addresses the needs of SMB organizations as well as large enterprises by functioning as a standalone core switch or as lower-cost edge switch in large core-to-edge tiered storage networks.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 8\/24 SAN switches provides unprecedented investment protection. Auto-sensing ports that support backward compatibility with 1, 2, 4, and 8 Gbit\/sec devices significantly reduce deployment complexity and costs, while providing compatibility with installed devices. Organizations that do not require 8 Gbit\/sec interfaces can populate the new switches with 4 Gbit\/sec SFPs, while preserving their ability to easily upgrade to 8 Gbit\/sec SFPs in the future.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 8\/24 SAN Switch with 24 enabled ports may be deployed as a full-fabric switch or in Access Gateway mode, which provides connectivity into any SAN (the default mode setting is a switch). Access Gateway mode utilizes NPIV switch standards to present Fibre Channel connections as logical devices to SAN fabrics.","brand":"HP","offers":[{"title":"HP","offer_id":1945693315,"sku":"AM868A#0D1","price":37.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/searchanise-100k.myshopify.com\/products\/3552290","provider":"searchanise-100k","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
