As workloads become more demanding, cyber threats become more sophisticated, and the spectrum of threats expands, it is essential to fortify the storage network against hidden risks. The network must deliver optimal performance, operate autonomously, streamline management, and protect critical data. The HPE Storage Fibre Channel Switch B-series SN6800B with Gen8 technology delivers the performance, automation, and security necessary to enable these capabilities.

What is new supporting point:
128G Connectivity: The SN6800B doubles the bandwidth of previous Gen7 switches, offering 128Gbps line speeds across its ports.
Post-quantum Cryptography (PQC): The Gen8 architecture introduces quantum-resistant algorithms and protocols to protect data against future decryption by quantum computers.
Adaptive Traffic Optimizer: Automatically classifies and prioritizes traffic based on protocol, speed, and latency profile, helping ensure that slower devices do not block high-speed NVMe or FC flows.
SAN Fabric Intelligence (SAN FI): Provides end-to-end visibility by correlating server, storage, and virtual machine resources, which automates troubleshooting and management.
