HP AM866A: StorageWorks 8/8 Base SAN Switch, an 8Gb Fibre Channel switch with 8 active ports scalable to 24.

The HP AM866A is a StorageWorks 8/8 Base SAN Switch, a 1U Fibre Channel fabric switch built on the Brocade 300 platform. It ships with 8 active 8Gb/s ports and scales non-disruptively to a maximum of 24 enabled ports through pay-as-you-grow licensing, making it a compact entry point into full-fabric SAN switching.

Auto-sensing ports support 1, 2, 4 and 8 Gbps Fibre Channel devices with full-duplex, non-blocking performance across an aggregate switch bandwidth of 384 Gbps. The switch is aimed at SMB storage environments and works well as an edge switch feeding into a larger core-to-edge SAN fabric.
