LENOVO 22R5897 – 16E Open Trunking (FCP Support Only)

Detailed Description:

The LENOVO 22R5897 – 16E Open Trunking license is tailored for 16Gbps Fibre Channel Protocol (FCP) networks, enhancing the efficiency and reliability of data transportation between storage systems and servers. This solution enables the aggregation of multiple FC links into a single, logical connection or ‘trunk’, optimizing bandwidth utilization and providing load balancing and failover capabilities. Open Trunking ensures that traffic is evenly distributed across the links, preventing bottlenecks and maximizing throughput, which is critical for applications requiring high-performance storage access. By supporting FCP, this license focuses on streamlining Fibre Channel storage communications, offering a boost to SAN performance that is especially beneficial in virtualized and data-intensive environments. It is an ideal upgrade for enterprises seeking to enhance their storage network’s scalability, resilience, and overall efficiency.
