2-44 Compaq Parallel Database Cluster Model PDC/O2000 for Oracle8i and Windows 2000 Administrator Guide Maximum Distances Between Nodes and Shared Storage Components in a Redundant FC-AL By using standard short-wave Fibre Channel cables with Gigabit Interface Converter-Shortwave (GBIC-SW) modules, the following maximum distances apply: I Each RA4000/RA4100 Array can be placed up to 500 meters from the Storage Hubs or FC-AL Switches to which it is cabled. I Each Storage Hub or FC-AL Switch can be placed up to 500 meters from the Fibre Host Adapters to which it is cabled. Figure 2-17 illustrates these maximum cable distances for a redundant FC-AL.
