2. Fibre Channel switch - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibre_Channel_switch

   SAN administrators typically add new switches as their server and storage needs grow, connecting switches together via fiber optic cable using the standard device ports. Some switch vendors offer dedicated high-speed stacking ports to handle inter-switch connections (similar to existing stackable Ethernet switches), allowing high-performance ...

3. Ethernet over fiber - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethernet_over_fiber

   With fiber-optic cables, data can be transmitted over much greater distances compared to copper-based Ethernet cable. [2] Ethernet over fiber-optic cable has been a technology with specifications dating back to the mid 1980s (10BASE-F). Initially, fiber-optic cables were primarily used to connect repeaters when the distance between them ...

4. Small Form-factor Pluggable - Wikipedia

   Ethernet switch with two empty SFP slots (lower left) SFP sockets are found in Ethernet switches, routers, firewalls and network interface cards. They are used in Fibre Channel host adapters and storage equipment. Because of their low cost, low profile, and ability to provide a connection to different types of optical fiber, SFP provides such ...

   Fibre Channel director with SFP+ modules and LC optical fiber connectors with Optical Multimode 3 (OM3) fiber (aqua) Fibre Channel switches can be divided into two classes. These classes are not part of the standard, and the classification of every switch is a marketing decision of the manufacturer:
