Product overview

The HP Brocade 4/24 SAN Switch (SKU: HSTNS-1B10) is a Fibre Channel SAN Fabric Switch from the Brocade BladeSystem product line, designed as a plug-in module for HP BladeSystem c-Class interconnect bays. It features 24 ports total—16 internal for blade server connectivity and 8 external SFP ports—supporting 4Gb Fibre Channel protocol at 4 Gbps per port, with up to 24 Gbps aggregated bandwidth. This full-duplex, hot-swappable switch enables non-blocking architecture for high-performance storage networking, reducing cabling needs via internal backplane integration. Management is provided through SNMP v3 and WebTools, with zoning and full fabric connectivity licenses. Compatible with Brocade Fabric OS, it supports trunking, dynamic path selection, and Access Gateway mode for scalable SAN fabrics. Ideal for enterprise data centers deploying small to medium SANs, it simplifies deployment, cuts costs on SFPs and cables, and enhances reliability in virtualized environments.

Frequently asked questions

What is the port configuration of the HP Brocade 4/24 SAN Switch?

It features 24 ports total: 16 internal ports for direct connection to HP BladeSystem c-Class blade servers via backplane, and 8 external SFP slots for SAN fabric links. This setup supports 4Gb Fibre Channel with included short-wave SFPs for external ports, enabling trunking and up to 32 Gbps throughput in groups.

What performance specs does this switch provide?

Each port delivers 4 Gbps in full-duplex mode, aggregating to 24 Gbps per switch and up to 192 Gbps end-to-end fabric bandwidth. Non-blocking architecture ensures low latency (<2 µsec cut-through), with dynamic path selection and support for 1/2/4 Gbps auto-sensing devices.

Is it compatible with HP BladeSystem enclosures?

Yes, designed as a plug-in module for BladeSystem c-Class interconnect bays. Internal 16 ports integrate via chassis backplane, sharing power and cooling for zero footprint. Hot-swappable installation frees rack space and reduces cabling costs.
