Overview Hardware Components The SAN Director 2/128 features a modular and scalable mechanical construction that allows a wide range of flexibility in switch installation, fabric design, and maintenance. HP supports two SAN Director 2/128 switches in an HP 10,000 series, HP System/e or comparable EIA cabinet. The modular chassis consists of the following: ■ Up to eight hot-swappable 16-port cards, delivering up to 128 Fibre Channel ports in a single chassis ■ Two slots for control processor (CP) cards (slots 5 and 6): - A single active CP card can control all 128 ports in the chassis - The standby CP card assumes control of the switch if the active CP fails ■ Modular hot-swappable field replaceable units (FRUs): - 16-port cards (1-8) - CP cards (2) - Small form-factor pluggable (SFP) optical transceivers - Blower assemblies (3) - Power supplies (2) ■ Cables, cards (16-port and CP), and power supplies serviced from the port side of the SAN Director 2/128 and blowers serviced from the nonport side ■ Support for mounting the chassis with the port side facing the air-intake aisle if adequate cooling is provided ■ Easy cable management using a cable management tray and cable guides (pillars) ■ Three blowers provide cooling, allowing continuous operation even if one blower fails ■ Constant intake and FRU temperature monitoring ■ World Wide Name (WWN) card on the nonport side, to maintain chassis-specific information such as WWNs, IP addresses, and summary status information of each card (16-port and CP) and power supply through LEDs SAN Director 2/128 Installation Guide 17
