The HPE SN3600B 24/8 8p 32Gb SW SFP FC Switch (part number R7R97A) is a Fibre Channel network switch from HPE. It is built for storage area network (SAN) connectivity and provides 8 ports operating at 32 Gb, using an SFP interface for Fibre Channel links.
Fibre Channel switches such as this one connect servers to shared storage arrays in a dedicated storage network, keeping storage traffic separate from general LAN traffic. The 32 Gb port speed supports high-throughput data transfer between hosts and storage systems.
The switch suits data centre and enterprise environments that run Fibre Channel SANs. Typical uses include supporting virtualised server clusters, databases and other workloads that depend on block-level access to centralised storage.
