VNX5500, VNX5700
ARCHITECTURE
Based on the powerful new family of Intel Xeon -5600 processors, the EMC VNX
implements a modular architecture that integrates hardware components for block, file, and object with
concurrent support for native NAS, iSCSI, Fibre Channel, and FCoE protocols. The series delivers file
(NAS) functionality via two -to-eight X-blade data movers and block (iSCSI, FCoE, and FC) storage via
dual storage processors leveraging full 6 Gb SAS disk drive topology. You can also start with block or
file functionality and easily upgrade to unified when needed. The unified configuration includes the
following rack-mounted enclosures:
Disk processor enclosure (holds disk drives) or storage processor enclosure (requires disk drive tray)
plus standby power system to deliver block protocols
One or more data mover enclosures to deliver file protocols (required for file and unifiedconfigurations)
Control station (required for file and unified configurations

EMC Connectrix B Series DS-5100B

The Connectrix DS-5100B is an Enterprise class 1U, 40-port Fibre Channel 1, 2, 4 or 8 Gbps
Fibre Channel switch that offers the next generation, single-chip architecture for Storage
Area Networks (SANs). The DS-5100B is designed to function in large-scale enterprise SANs
and can also fit the requirements of small to medium-sized work groups.
Because the DS-5100B has a slim 1U height and a high port count, you can use the DS5100B to create very dense fabrics in a relatively small space. With its flexible Ports On
Demand (POD) capability, the DS-5100B provides excellent overall value as the foundation
of a SAN with the ability to grow with an organizations SAN needs.
The DS-5100B is the latest mid-range offer from the Connectrix B-Series family of entry-toenterprise products. It supports the following features:
Up to 40 ports of high-performance 8 Gbps technology and POD scaling from 24 to 32 or 40
ports.
Support for 1, 2, 4, and 8 Gbps auto-sensing Fibre Channel switch and router ports.
FICON, FICON Cascading and FICON Control Unit Port ready.
Two hot-swappable, redundant integrated power supply and fan FRUs.
Universal ports that self-configure as E, F, M, or FL_ ports. EX_Ports are activated on a per
port basis with the optional Integrated Routing license.
Fibre Channel Routing (FCR) service that provides improved scalability and fault isolation
(through the optional Integrated Routing license).
An RJ45 Ethernet management port, that in conjunction with EZSwitchSetup, supports
switch IP address discovery and configuration, eliminating the need to attach a serial cable
to configure the switch IP address and greatly increasing the ease of use.
USB port that provides storage for firmware updates, output of the supportsave command
and storage for configuration uploads and downloads
Single motherboard design with 667 MHz PowerPC 440EPx Reduced Instruction Set
Computer (RISC) CPU and integrated peripherals which provide high performance.
Inter-Switch Link (ISL) Trunking (licensable) which allows up to eight ports (at 2G, 4G, or 8G
speeds) between a pair of switches combined to form a single, logical ISL with a speed of up
to 128 Gbps full duplex for optimal bandwidth utilization and load balancing.
Dynamic Path Selection (DPS), which optimizes fabric-wide performance and load balancing
by automatically routing data to the most efficient available path in the fabric.
Rack-mount designed using existing optional rail kits (fixed, sliding, and mid-mount/Telco
rail kits) on a 19 EIA rack.

Industry-leading

extended distance support, which enables native Fibre Channel extension

greater than 590 km.
Expanded security for up to 16,000 hardware zones. Hardware zoning is accomplished at
the port level of the switch or by World Wide Name (WWN). Hardware zoning permits or
denies delivery of frames to any destination port address.
Unicast, multicast (255 groups), and broadcast data traffic type, are support.
Brocade Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) or SFP+ optical transceivers support any
combination of Short Wavelength (SWL), Long Wavelength (LWL) or Extended Long
Wavelength (ELWL) optical media among the switch ports.
Fabric Operating System (Fabric OS), which delivers distributed intelligence throughout the
network and enables a wide range of value-added applications including Advanced Web
Tools and Zoning. Optional Fabric Services include: Adaptive Networking with QoS, Extended
Fabrics, Enhanced Group Management, Fabric Watch, ISL Trunking, Integrated Routing, and
End-to-End Performance Monitoring (APM).
Port-to-port latency minimized to 700 nanoseconds through the use of cut-through frame
routing at 8 Gbps.
Extensive diagnostics and system monitoring capabilities, which enhance high Reliability,
Availability, and Serviceability (RAS).
The EZSwitchSetup wizard, which makes SAN configuration a 3-step point-and click task.
Port numbering

The Fibre Channel ports on the DS-5100B are numbered from left to right, in eight-port groups from 0
to 39

Ports on demand
The DS-5100B can be purchased with 24, 32, or 40 licensed ports. As your needs increase,
you can activate unlicensed ports by purchasing and installing the Ports on Demand optional
licensed product. After it has been installed, the license appears under the licenseShow
command as Ports on Demand license.
By default, ports 0 through 23 are enabled on the DS-5100B. To enable ports 24 through 31,
install a Ports on Demand license key. To enable ports 32 through 39, install another Ports on
Demand license. After you have installed the license keys, you must enable the ports. You
can do so without disrupting switch operation by using the
portEnable command on each port individually. Alternatively, you can disable and reenable the switch to activate all ports simultaneously.

EMC CONNECTRIX DS-6505B

The EMC

Connectrix

DS-6505B Switch provides exceptional price/performance value,

combining flexibility, simplicity, and enterprise-class functionality in an entry-level
switch.
Designed to enable maximum flexibility and reliability, the Connectrix DS-6505B is
configurable in 12 or 24 ports and supports 4, 8, or 16 Gigabits per second (Gb/s)
speeds in an efficiently designed 1U package. It comes standard with a single

power supply with integrated fans. A second, optional power supply provides
additional redundancy for increased resiliency.
