Family 2026 IBM TotalStorage SAN12 m-1 Entry and SAN24M-1 Mid-range
The IBM 2026 SAN12 m-1 entry switch Model E12 is designed to meet the needs of entry level SAN
applications, first-time SAN deployments, departmental SANs, and application specific deployments.
The SAN12 m-1 entry switch offers 4, 8, or 12 non-blocking ports, providing 1 and 2 Gbps Fibre Channel
ports utilizing industry standards-based auto-sensing and auto-rate-negotiating operation with Fabric
and Public Loop attached devices. The optional Full Fabric Activation feature enables support for
Inter-Switch Link (ISL) and full bandwidth extended distance operation up to 10 km at 2 Gbps (when
configured with longwave transceivers), to help disaster tolerance solutions.
The IBM 2026 SAN24M-1 mid-range switch Model 224 is designed to provide storage consolidation, high
availability, and high-port density in a 1-U rack mount chassis. The SAN24M-1 supports both long-wave
and shortwave transceivers, offers up to twenty-four non-blocking ports, in eight-port increments, with
support for auto-sensing, auto-rate-negotiation 1 and 2 Gbps Fibre Channel, Arbitrated Loop (FC-AL),
and Fabric (FC-SW). The SAN24M-1 is designed to provide integrated support for full Fabric and FC-AL
tape attachment to SAN m-type family of enterprise directors and switches.
Highlights:
2 Gb Fibre Channel, auto-sense for connection to 1 Gb
Four (E12) or eight (224) shortwave ports standard, eight (E12) or 16 (224) optional, shortwave or
