IBM Converged Switch B32 connects to servers through Converged Network Adapters (CNAs), which can transport both Ethernet LAN and Fibre Channel SAN data. The consolidated server LAN and SAN ports and corresponding cables simplify configuration and cabling in server cabinets to reduce acquisition costs. With fewer components using power or requiring cooling, organizations can save significant operating costs as well. The optional Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) capability is designed to integrate seamlessly into existing SAN environments, which helps protect infrastructure investments. In addition, FCoE extends the reach of FC management applications and tools, enabling organizations to manage FCoE-attached devices under a single, unified management umbrella.
