Overview The Hewlett-Packard SureStore E hub, short-wave model S10 and long-wave model L10, is a full-duplex, 1063-megabit-per-second hub. It increases loop reliability, number of loop connections, and distances between server and mass storage devices in a Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loop. The hub’ s port detection and bypass circuitry dynamically detects and bypasses a failed node on the loop. Nodes can be added, removed, and reconnected without bringing down the loop and disrupting communica

Product Description Features HP SureStore E hubs provide the following features: • Short-wave hub (model S10): 10 non-Open Fibre Control (non-OFC) short-wave optical transceivers • Long-wave hub (model L10): nine non-OFC, short-wave optical transceivers and one non-OFC, long-wave optical transceiver • Local retime and regeneration of transmit signals to prevent accumulation of jitter and improve the signal • Reliable, automatic bypass of failed nodes; dynamic recognition of newly added or re

Front Panel, Model S10 Short-Wave Hub The front panel contains LEDs for monitoring power, fault, and port status. The RS-232 port is provided to configure and troubleshoot the hub and to upgrade its firmware. The 10Base-T port provides an ethernet connection if you choose to manage the hub with Fibre Channel Manager. The Reset button resets the internal control microprocessor of the hub. Pushing the Reset button also forces loop initialization on all devices in the loop. Figure 1 Front Panel

Product Description Front Panel, Model L10 Long-Wave Hub The front panel contains LEDs for monitoring power, fault, and port status. The long-wave port is between port 9 and the 10Base-T port. The RS-232 port is provided to configure and troubleshoot the hub and to upgrade its firmware. The 10Base-T port provides an ethernet connection if you choose to manage the hub with Fibre Channel Manager. The Reset button resets the internal control microprocessor of the hub.

Rear Panel, Short-Wave and Long-Wave Hubs Three fans, located in a customer-replaceable module at the rear panel, cool the hub. If one fan fails, the remaining two fans cool the hub temporarily, but it is important to replace the module as soon as possible (see chapter 5, Maintenance and Replacement). Figure 3 Rear Panel fan air vents Caution Although the module will continue to run with two fans, a full complement of fans ensures system and data integrity. 16 Rear Panel, Short-Wave

Product Description Supported Topologies Devices such as FC-AL disk arrays and HP system servers that support FC-AL can be connected to the hub in a loop that includes one or more servers. All nodes in the loop must be 1063 Mbps short-wave, non-OFC, FC-AL. The ports connected by a cable must have the same optical transceivers. Figure 4, Figure 5, and Figure 6 show typical hub topologies. For details on supported topologies, contact an HP sales representative. Single Short-Wave Hub Topology F

Cascaded Short-Wave Hub Topology The example in Figure 5 shows two model S10 hubs connected in a cascade topology. Cascaded short-wave hubs use one port on each hub for the hub-to-hub connection. Such a configuration increases the potential distance between nodes in the loop an additional 500 meters. The maximum distance between the server and FC-AL devices with cascaded short-wave hubs is 1500 meters (1.5 km). Figure 5 Example Topology: Cascaded Short-Wave Hubs Maximum distance between 500
