DS-C9134-K9 Cisco 24-Port 4.24Gb/s Multilayer Fabric Fibre Channel Network Switch

Cisco DS-C9134-K9

Build a fast, resilient storage network with the Cisco DS-C9134-K9, a Fibre Channel switch for small to large Fibre Channel fabrics in the data center. This model is part of the Cisco MDS 9000 Series and runs Cisco NX-OS.

It provides 24 Fibre Channel ports for connecting host bus adapters, storage controllers and inter-switch links. Dedicated storage networking keeps SAN traffic separate from your LAN for predictable performance and stronger security. Fibre Channel SFP optics are speed-specific, so choose transceivers that match your target link speed. For high availability, many SAN designs use two independent fabrics so that every server and array has redundant paths. Verify compatibility with your HBAs, arrays and optics before deployment. Dedicated SAN switching protects storage performance from spikes in general network traffic. ISLs connect additional switches when you need more ports.

Install switches in pairs where possible so that maintenance on one fabric does not interrupt storage access. Fibre Channel was designed specifically for storage traffic and delivers consistent, in-order frame delivery. Quote DS-C9134-K9 when ordering to receive this exact configuration. Storage vendors publish interoperability matrices worth checking before rollout. Many organizations keep identical SAN switch models across each fabric to simplify firmware management and support. With zoning, administrators decide exactly which hosts can see which storage targets. Add the Cisco DS-C9134-K9 to your network for reliable storage networking you can depend on.
