298 Specifications
Specification
15 lbs. (6.80 kg) fully loaded
16 Fibre Channel 4 GB / 2 GB / 1 GB ports (upgradeable in
4-port increments, full-duplex, auto-negotiating for compatibility
with existing 2Gb and 1Gb devices), 4 Fibre Channel 10 GB
XPAK MSA-compliant ports (full-duplex), 1 Ethernet 10/100 BaseT
with RJ45 port
• Supports all topologies, including: stack, cascade, cascaded
loop, and mesh with E_Port
• Supports multiple links between switches
• In-order delivery of frames in all Multi-switch and multi-link
configurations
• Adaptive Trunking and Intelligent Path Selection on all 10Gb
ports
All ports can assume the following states:
• F_port: Fabric
• FL_port: Fabric loop (public loop)
• E_port: Switch-to-switch
• Ports are auto-discovering, self-configuring
• Hot-pluggable, industry-standard SFPs (Small Form Pluggable)
for 4Gb ports
• Hot-pluggable, industry-standard XPAK optics or copper
stacking cables for 10Gb ports
• Shortwave (optical)
• Longwave (optical)
Optical
• Shortwave: 500 m (1,640 ft.)
• Longwave: 10 km (6.2 mi.)
50/62.5 micron multimode fiber optic
9 micron single-mode fiber optic
• Less than 0.4 μs (best case, no contention)
• Cut-through routing
• 848MB/s Full-Duplex on 4 GB ports
• 2400+ MB/s Full-Duplex on 10 GB ports
• Single chassis: Up to 144 Gbps (full-duplex) end-to-end
• Non-blocking architecture
2148 bytes (2112 byte payload)
• ASIC-embedded memory (non-shared)
• Each port has a guaranteed 16-credit zero wait state buffer
for full performance up to 10km @ 2 GB and 2.5km @ 10
