Reduce TCO with the industry’s first Customer Replaceable Unit (CRU) components, smallest footprint, most flexible rack-mount options and leading power/cooling efficiency.
Finally, there’s a new class of core switch that represents a sane alternative to quarter million dollar Director switches. The QLogic
SANbox 9000 series is designed to the core for cost sensitive, business-critical, open system environments that require a ultra-high
density, blazing performance, 99.999% availability, intelligent, switch platform for their data center core. SANbox 9000 series
represents a number of industry firsts: a stackable chassis for simple, cost-effective scalability, a 4U chassis for smaller footprint,
the simplicity and economies of Customer Replaceable Units (CRUs) and a comprehensive set of core switch software management
tools included as standard. Best of all, pricing starts at under $100K.
The highly scalable QLogic SANbox 9000 is a stackable chassis switch with a dedicated 800Gb/s HyperStack connection between as many as two chassis modules. The high port count SANbox 9000 supports up to 256 ports in a dual chassis configuration. The intelligent SANbox 9000 offers in one chassis module: 8 slots for any mix of 4Gb or 10Gb Fibre Channel I/O Blades, iSCSI Intelligent Storage Router I/O Blades, FCIP Intelligent Storage Router I/O Blades, or Storage Services Platform (SSP) Blades. For high availability, the SANbox 9000 features redundant, hot-swap I/O, SSP, CPU, Power Supply and Fan blades. And for comprehensive fabric management, the SANbox 9000 includes a powerful and easy-to-use suite of software tools for setting-up, monitoring, tuning, troubleshooting and servicing an unlimited number of large fabrics.
For configuration options, pricing and availability please allow DSS, Inc. to put together a detailed solution designed to meet your project criteria and earn your business.

At twice the port density of typical 14U Director switches, the SANbox 9000 stackable chassis switch scales to 128 ports in a 4U single chassis module or
up to 256 ports in an 8U dual chassis module HyperStack configuration (via backplane interconnects) 32 ports per 1U of rack space!
Unlike legacy Director switches, the SANbox 9000 switch provides a low cost entry point with a 16 4Gb FC port configuration.
Seamlessly grow your 9000 switch in 16 port increments up to 256 ports
Eight I/O Blade slots per chassis module supporting multi-protocol and multi-function technologies including:
-4Gb FC I/O Blade: for maximum server and storage connectivity.
-10Gb FC I/O Blade: high-speed Inter-Switch Links (ISLs) including trunking between other Core, Distribution and Edge class switches.
Intelligent Storage Router Blade: iSCSI for connecting low cost servers and FCIP for replicating data across a WAN
Storage services Platform SSP Blade: pool heterogeneous storage
Broadly deployable in local, campus, distributed and remote Core/Distribution/Edge configuration topologies.
ENTRY Model SB9100 fully upgradeable in the field to single or dual HyperStack BASE Model SB9200
