Technical Details for Brocade Silkworm 2400

Brocade Silkworm 2400 ... modular components to build a wide range of SAN solutions. The SilkWorm 2400 and SilkWorm 2800 create an intelligent connectivity infrastructure, or Fabric, to support connectivity of a wide range of host and storage types. Users share these resources efficiently in a SAN. Fabric services are deployed automatically and transparently throughout the Fabric to assure it is resilient to failures. The Fabric is scalable, expanding rapidly to increasing demands by users for highly available, heterogeneous access to growing storage pools. SilkWorm switches provide the cornerstone for a wide range of SAN configurations - from NT-based workgroups to large enterprise solutions. Fabric switches have the capability to cascade, further increasing a Fabric's scalability and resiliency. A multiple-switch Fabric can connect thousands of Fiber Channel ports. SilkWorm switches meet the needs of a broad range of SAN applications, including storage consolidation, enterprise backup, and clustering environments.
