The solution allows organizations to fully unlock the performance of Fibre Channel 64G.
Designed for customers who are modernizing their storage networks or upgrading from Gen 6 platforms, Panduit's new solution offers true 1:1 port replication, seamless interoperability with LC, and significant reductions in installation time and cabling volume, solving critical challenges that have historically limited Fibre Channel scalability.
Brocade's Gen 7 architecture doubles port density using SFP-DD optics and SN connectors, enabling 64 links on each FC64-64 blade. While this advancement accelerates performance, it also introduces complexity for operators accustomed to LC-based patching.
“Panduit is introducing an innovative solution for next-generation storage networks, incorporating cable harnesses with reduced form factor connectors and a port mirroring panel designed to accelerate technology upgrades,” said Dennis Waszak, Director of Product Management and Engineering at Panduit.
