SilkWorm 2010 provides high-speed connectivity for FC-AL environments. An arbitrated loop is formed by logically connecting all 8 ports on the switch into a single loop. SilkWorm 2010 delivers better performance, availability, and investment protection than hub-based solutions by providing support for simultaneous data transfers to and from all ports, superior fault isolation, and easy migration to a Full Fabric through a software key.
