A storage area network (SAN) switch is a device that connects servers and shared pools of storage devices and is dedicated to moving storage traffic. The SAN switch contains the Director-class switches and Fibre Channel switches. A SAN switch is often a Fibre Channel (FC) switch, which is compatible with the Fibre Channel protocol. The FC switch checks the data packet header, determines the computing devices of origin and destination, and sends the packet to the intended storage system. An FC switch is designed for use in a high-performance network with low latency and lossless data transmission. A SAN fabric switch contains a low to medium port count, while a director is a high port count switch (generally above 64 ports). Fibre Channel switches can be networked together to build larger storage networks. The HBA is more complex than a traditional Ethernet card.
Global demand for SAN Switches, supplied mainly by Brocade, Cisco, QLogic, and Emulex, which took a combined market share of roughly 93%.
The world's large enterprises are mainly concentrated in China, North America and Europe. China accounts for the largest region with 87%, due to huge space of China OEM enterprises’ plants. North America accounts for the second regions with a market share of 7%, and followed by Europe.
