I guess it is AL built into the switch that nobody particularly cares about: "''StorageTek's industry leadership and data center experience positions it well as a worldwide channel for Brocade's SilkWorm switch,'' said Peter Tarrant, vice president of marketing and business development for Brocade. ''Our switch technology alleviates the complexity and vulnerability of arbitrated loop configurations as well as future-proofing for further scalability, providing a very strong reason for end-users to implement a switched fabric for true enterprise-level computing.'' Price doesn't seem to be such a deterrent after all: "StorageTek's StorageNet Fibre Channel Switch 4000 is available immediately. Priced at US$48,000 fully configured, the 16-port switch supports both copper and optical media." biz.yahoo.com
