QLogic Corp. (Aliso Viejo, CA) announced that Sun Microsystems is offering QLogic SANbox 9200 Fibre Channel director switches with new Fault Tolerant (FT) and 256-port HyperStack license key-enabled features. The company says SANbox 9200 director's architecture is designed to the core to require less rack space, power, and administrative resources than competitive products, at a fraction of the cost.

The SANbox 9000 architecture has total power and component redundancy for ultra high availability, delivers 1.6TB of streaming bandwidth and allows chassis modules to scale capacity in lockstep with performance via the innovative QLogic HyperStack technology. For unprecedented scalability, the eight-slot SANbox 9000 chassis is modular in two dimensions. The SANbox 9000 Series is for business-critical, open system environments that require high density performance and reduced storage administration for their data center core.
