Frequently asked questions
What is the HPE SN6710C 64G 24/8 switch used for?
- This switch connects enterprise storage arrays to server infrastructure within a high-speed Fibre Channel Storage Area Network (SAN). It provides up to 64Gbps throughput per port to handle heavy data transfers, virtualised environments, and latency-sensitive datacentre applications.
Can the port capacity of this switch be expanded?
- Yes, the switch comes pre-configured with 8 active 64Gb short-wave SFP+ transceivers and supports expansion up to 24 ports via 16 optional Ports on Demand interfaces. This allows your SAN infrastructure to scale seamlessly as your datacentre storage needs grow.
Does the switch include a warranty in South Africa?
- Yes, it is backed by a 1-year limited parts and labour on-site warranty with next business day response available through Server Hub in South Africa. All orders are supplied with local support and billed in South African Rand.
