The EMC® Connectrix® MP-8000B is a top-of-rack FCoE switch that enables consolidation of server adapters and cables by allowing LAN and SAN traffic to travel on a single 10 Gigabit Ethernet link. By reducing server adapters and cabling, customers can lower equipment acquisition costs as well as the operational costs associated with server power consumption and cooling. The switch features eight 8 Gb/s Fibre Channel ports along with twenty-four 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10 GbE) ports. The 10 GbE ports support Converged Enhanced Ethernet (CEE), a new version of the Ethernet standard which increases the reliability, efficiency, and scalability of Ethernet networks. This enhanced version supports multiple traffic classes over a lossless Ethernet fabric, enabling the consolidation of LAN, SAN, and cluster environments. The MP-8000B also has hot-swappable, redundant 350W power supplies and cooling fans to provide the highest levels of availability, reliability, and performance..

Specifications
