16-port, auto-sensing Fibre Channel
switch significantly increases
performance and functionality for
Storage Area Networks (SANs).
Based on third-generation Brocade
ASIC technology, the SilkWorm
3800 combines 1 Gbit/sec and
2 Gbit/sec Fibre Channel through-
put with new features that greatly
enhance switch operation. As a
result, organizations can enjoy the
advantages of higher security,
availability, and performance, as well
as centralized data management.

Designed for enterprise environments,
the SilkWorm 3800 integrates a
variety of high-availability hardware
and software features.The SilkWorm
3800 is especially useful for organi-
zations that want to upgrade their
existing environment with minimal
disruption.The switch is fully inter-
operable with existing SilkWorm
1000 and 2000 series switches—
enabling a core-to-edge architecture
that facilitates expansion, higher
performance, and higher availability.

When added to existing fabrics,
the SilkWorm 3800 automatically
assigns individual switch addresses,
establishes frame routes, and configures
the internal name server.

HIGH AVAILABILITY THROUGHOUT
