Fibre Channel
Fibre Channel is a high performance serial
link supporting its own, as well as higher-level protocols such
as the small computer system interface, high performance
parallel interface framing protocol and intelligent peripheral
interface.
The Fibre Channel standard addresses the need for very fast
transfers of large amounts of information. The fast (up to 1
Giga byte per second) technology can be converted for LAN
technology by adding a switch specified in the Fibre Channel
standard that handles multipoint addressing.
Fibre Channel gives users one port that supports both channel
and network interfaces, unburdening the computers from large
number of input and output (I/O) ports. Fibre Channel provides
control and complete error checking over the link.
