HPE SN3600B 16Gb 24/8 8-port Short Wave SFP+ Fibre Channel Switch (R4G55A) - 3 Years Local Warranty 

Product Overview

The HPE SN3600B 16Gb 24/8 8-port Short Wave SFP+ Fibre Channel Switch (R4G55A) is a high-performance, scalable solution designed to deliver fast and reliable connectivity for enterprise storage area networks (SAN). With 8 ports of 16Gb Fibre Channel speed, this switch provides the necessary bandwidth to support critical applications and storage systems. The short-wave SFP+ (Small Form-Factor Pluggable) transceivers included in this model enable efficient, high-speed data transfer over short distances, making it a perfect choice for high-demand environments such as data centers, cloud computing, and large-scale enterprise networks.

High-Speed Fibre Channel Connectivity

The HPE SN3600B is built to provide superior speed and performance with 16Gb Fibre Channel connectivity. Whether you're managing large data sets, virtualized environments, or high-traffic applications, the switch delivers fast, reliable performance to support demanding workloads. With a total of 8 ports, it enables seamless data communication between servers, storage devices, and other components within your SAN environment. This Fibre Channel switch is designed to handle intensive data flows, ensuring minimal latency and uninterrupted network operation.

Flexible Short-Wave SFP+ Transceivers

This model features short-wave SFP+ transceivers, which provide high-speed connections over shorter distances, typically within a data center or local area network (LAN) setup. The HPE SN3600B switch’s SFP+ ports are ideal for environments where devices are located within close proximity, ensuring low signal attenuation and optimal performance. The inclusion of these transceivers allows businesses to minimize their cabling costs and optimize their network layout, providing a flexible and efficient networking solution for modern enterprise infrastructures.

Scalable and Future-Proof Design

The HPE SN3600B switch offers scalability for growing businesses and expanding storage networks. With support for both 24 ports in total (12 active ports and 12 expansion ports), organizations can easily scale up their SAN environment as their data storage needs increase. This makes the R4G55A a future-proof investment, as it provides room for growth without requiring the replacement of existing equipment. The ability to scale ports, increase bandwidth, and add additional SFP+ transceivers makes this switch adaptable to future technological advancements and business expansion.
