Re: SAN SWITCH CONNECTION
yes you can connect them without any additional licenses. Only if you want to trunkt two or more links between to switches to a virtual link, so called trunk, you need the trunking license. Depending on the distance you maybe need long-wave transceivers. With short-wave transceivers it depends on the fibre cable:
2 GB OM2 cable - 300m OM3 cable - 500m
4 GB OM2 cable - 150m OM3 cable - 380m
8 GB OM2 cable - 50m OM3 cable - 150m
Best regards,
Patrick

Re: SAN SWITCH CONNECTION
which LED is blinking amber? This can mean, that the switch is disabled, a zone or PID conflict or the port is disabled or a problem during bootup. Check the webfrontend of the switches. There you will find more details about this error.

Re: SAN SWITCH CONNECTION
Another possibility is that if they are re-used switches then they each have their own zoning database. You will have to clear the zone database on one of them to allow it to connect into the fabric of the other switch.

Re: SAN SWITCH CONNECTION
Now when I connect the 5m multi-mode OM3 LC/LC FC cable in Short wave tranceivers, it show connection with Green LED blink.But when I connect same cable in 4G Long Wave tranceiver, it doesn't blink LED any color. That means this cable with logn wave tranceiver doesn't work.
For long wave tranceiver does it required special cable? Any other configuration required for LW FC tranceiver?

Re: SAN SWITCH CONNECTION
You need a Long-Wave Transceiver for LW Cable. But that's only if the distance between switches is longer than 150m (if you have OM3 cables and want 8Gbit)
What does the switch say when you connect the SW cable? (switchshow)
Does it form a fabric? (fabricshow)

Re: SAN SWITCH CONNECTION
100 km at 1 Gbps, or 35 km at 2 Gbps. The cable must be duplex tight-buffered
SMF 9/125 ├О┬╝m (Belcore GR-409 or ITU G.652) compliant. The connectors must
be SC duplex low-metal (NTT-SC Belcore 326 or IEC-874-19 SC) compliant.
The same longwave SMF cable is also used for most WDM applications. Contact
your WDM vendor for exact requirements.
