Description
The HPE StoreFabric SN6010C 12-Port Fibre Channel Switch (K2Q16A) delivers high-performance 16Gbps Fibre Channel connectivity for SAN environments. Designed for enterprise and mission-critical applications, this switch provides 768 Gbps of aggregate bandwidth across up to 48 autosensing ports (scalable from 12 ports via license upgrades), supporting 16/8/4 Gbps speeds.
Fully managed and rack-mountable, the SN6010C integrates intelligent networking services such as VSANs, NPIV, and QoS—making it a cost-effective solution for highly scalable, secure, and resilient storage networking.
Ideal for deployments requiring high availability, the switch supports dual hot-swappable power supplies, in-service software upgrades (ISSU), and seamless integration with HPE SN8000C/SN8500C directors and MDS 9100/9200 series switches. Simplified via Data Center Network Manager (DCNM), the SN6010C reduces operational complexity while maintaining full enterprise SAN capabilities.
