Switches
EMC Connectrix Switches are ideal network switches for departmental or edge storage area networks where you need highly available access to expanding network storage. Connectrix Switches provide best-in-class availability through hot-swappable components and scale seamlessly from 8 to 64 ports.
Connectrix Switches keep the most demanding storage area network (SAN) environments up and running. Simple, centralized SAN management provides a single point of control. Now you can display high-level or specific details of your SAN components, including servers, storage arrays, switches, and directors.
