"The StorageNet Fibre Channel Switch 4000 is a multiport switch that supports both fiber optic and copper fibre channel interfaces. The StorageNet Fibre Channel Switch 4000 will connect to fibre channel end points and to fibre channel arbitrated loops." Craig, My take on this is that Brocade doesn't necessarily need FC-AL in the actual switch, even though I think that is what Kerry was referencing. 207.183.153.88 I have confirmed that an FC-AL hub can plug into the switch and they also have a device on their web page that is an FC-AL plug in for their switch. brocadecomm.com I still haven't found out if these setups are slower. It would make sense that they are. On the other hand, most FC-AL applications will be fairly slow anyway, so this may not be a limiting factor.
