The Cisco MDS 9216A Multilayer Fabric Switch shares a consistent architecture with the MDS 9500 series Directors and offers the
same multilayer intelligence in a modular fabric switch. Intelligent features include multi-protocol support (Fibre Channel, iSCSI,
FCIP), Virtual SANs (VSANs), embedded diagnostics and role-based security. With these innovations, companies can build highly
scalable, available storage networks with comprehensive security and unified management.
The MDS 9216A is fully populated out of the box with sixteen 1 and 2 Gb auto-sensing Fibre Channel ports. An expansion slot
allows for the addition of an MDS 9000 Storage Networking Module available in 1, 2, 4 and 10Gb versions and in port increments
of 8, 12, 16, 24, 32, or 48 ports, for up to 64 Fibre Channel ports or for FC/IP connectivity. The MPS 18/4 module along with the
optional Cisco MDS 9200 Storage Media Encryption package can provide encryption for data at rest on storage tape media for
added security to the SAN environment. MDS 9000 Storage Networking Modules are interchangeable between the MDS 9216A
Fabric Switch, MDS 9216i Fabric Switch and MDS 9500 series directors, providing smooth migration, common sparing and
investment protection.
