HPE Virtual Connect 8Gb 24-Port FC network switch module

The Virtual Connect 8Gb 24-Port Fibre Channel Module is a new class of blade interconnect that simplifies server connections by cleanly separating the server enclosure from the storage area network (SAN). It simplifies your networks by reducing cables without adding switches to manage, and allows you to change servers or move workloads in just minutes.

With Virtual Connect, your business can reduce costs and simplify connections to your SAN and local area network (LAN). You can now easily consolidate your network connections and enable your adminis-
trators to add, replace, and recover server resources on the fly.

The standards-based Virtual Connect 8Gb 24-Port Fibre Channel Module looks like a pass-thru device to the network, yet provides all the key benefits of integrated switching, including high-performance 8Gb uplinks to the SAN. The integrated design frees up rack space, reduces power and cooling requirements, and reduces cables and small form-factor pluggables
