HP StorageWorks 2408 FCoE Converged Network Switch

HP StorageWorks 2408 FCoE Converged Network Switch — is a high-performance 1U solution (B-series) designed to simplify data center connectivity. By integrating 24 ports of 10 Gbps Converged Enhanced Ethernet (CEE) and 8 ports of 8 Gbps Fibre Channel, it enables the consolidation of LAN and SAN traffic onto a single, high-speed wire. The FCoE support reduces the need for multiple network interface cards (NICs) and host bus adapters (HBAs), leading to lower cabling costs and power consumption. With its non-blocking architecture and aggregate throughput of 608 Gbps, the HP 2408 provides a reliable, scalable foundation for virtualized environments and high-density server deployments.

Key Specifications:

• Port Count: 24 x 10GbE (CEE) ports and 8 x 8Gb FC ports.

• Throughput: 608 Gbps aggregate switching capacity.

• Redundancy: Hot-swappable, redundant power supplies and fan assemblies.

• Media Support: B-series 4/8/10Gb SFP+ modules and Twinax copper cables.

• Management: Advanced Webtools and optional B-series Data Center Fabric Manager (DCFM).
