MRV's system automates 8-Gbps Fibre Channel test
-- Test & Measurement World, 12/2/2008 9:00:00 AM
MRV Communications has added a physical-layer chassis and interface blade for high-port-density, 8-Gbps Fibre Channel testing to its MCC (Media Cross Connect) family of physical-layer switches. These scalable, OSI layer 1 switches allow storage equipment manufacturers to implement wire-once technology in their test lab environment to manage all tests and test configurations dynamically through software.
The new MCC chassis features an 8.5-Gbps backplane for 8-Gbps Fibre Channel applications, as well as other emerging high-speed protocols. Its companion interface blade uses SFP+ technology to provide high-density 8-Gbps Fibre Channel support. The chassis also accommodates all existing MCC interface blades, ranging from T1/E1 copper to 10-Gbps fiber protocols.
The MCC product line comprises a family of 2-slot, 4-slot, and 8-slot chassis designed to support any of the MCC interface blades. All systems are fully non-blocking in all configurations and are powered by hot-swappable AC power supplies with a redundant power option.
The new systems will ship before the end of the year, followed by the debut of the 8-Gbps SFP+ module for existing systems in early 2009.
