SB5602-20A Overview

Now the benefits of stackable IP switches are available for high performance 4Gb SANs. The SANbox 5600 series of stackable switches delivers the seamless scalability and performance of a chassis switch, in an easy-to-manage, pay-as-yougrow solution. With sixteen 4Gb ports plus a four-pack of high-speed 10Gb ISL ports, and entry as low as 8 ports with 4-port software-keyed increments and included graphical user interface (GUI) wizards, each SANbox 5600 stackable switch provides maximum flexibility for configuring and scaling SANs. Available in two power supply configurations: single integrated (SB5600) and dual hot-swappable (SB5602).

Features:
-16 auto detecting 4Gb/2Gb/1Gb device ports.
-4 10Gb ports for high speed stacking links.
-4-port 4Gb/2Gb/1Gb and/or 10Gb field upgrade licenses available.
-Stacking of up to 6 units for 96 available user ports.
-Non-Disruptive Code Load and Activation (NDCLA).
-Single and dual hot-swap power supply configurations available.
-Configuration, Zoning and Extended Distance wizards to simplify switch
installation and fabric scaling.
