Fibre Channel Products

About Fibre Channel Products

Fibre channel products include hubs, directors, servers, and adapters that use fibre channel technology, a high-speed, serial data transfer architecture that uses links of twisted-pair, coaxial, or fiber optic cable. Small computer system interface (SCSI) devices can use fibre channel arbitrated loop (FC-AL), the most popular fibre channel typology. Using optical fiber, FC-AL supports full-duplex data transfer rates of 100 Mbps. Eventually, FC-AL or a similar fibre channel product is expected to replace SCSI in high-performance storage systems.
