Now there's a single reference source (the first available besides the ANSI documents) that fully covers and explains the fibre channel standard--a revolutionary new technology. Presenting an annotated, readable version of the ANSI standard, this book details FC targeted usage, performance, and implementation, and includes most of the original ANSI standard documents. Communications engineers and developers and technicians responsible for troubleshooting networks will find a complete overview of the standard from the physical level up to the interface to upper level protocols such as IP and SCSI. The book includes both general overview information and descriptions with enough detail for design engineers to use as a reference guide in building and troubleshooting FC systems.
