The HPE SN2600B SAN Extension Switch is a purpose-built extension platform designed for midrange storage environments that demand high performance, reliability, and scalable connectivity across multisite data centers. Built to support block, file, and tape data protection solutions, this B-series switch acts as a bridge between storage fabrics, enabling seamless replication, disaster recovery, and rapid data access across geographically dispersed sites. Whether you’re consolidating storage at a central data center or extending your SAN fabric to regional facilities, the SN2600B delivers the bandwidth, flexibility, and manageability required for modern storage architectures.

  • High-performance SAN extension Enables robust, low-latency connectivity between data centers, supporting mission-critical workloads and rapid data replication across sites.
  • 32Gb Fibre Channel capability Provides the speed and bandwidth necessary to handle growth in midrange storage environments while maintaining compatibility with existing 32Gb fabrics.
  • 4-port 16Gb Short Wave SFP+ interfaces Delivers reliable long-distance connections to SAN fabrics, enabling scalable multisite deployments without compromising latency or throughput.
  • HPE B-series integration Seamlessly fits into the HPE B-series ecosystem, leveraging familiar management tools, security features, and proven reliability for enterprise-grade storage networks.
  • Comprehensive protection for data across locations Supports block, file, and tape data protection strategies, empowering organizations to implement robust backup, recovery, and disaster-recovery workflows across sites.

How to install HPE SN2600B 32Gb 12/4 4-port 16Gb Short Wave SFP+ SAN Extension Switch

  • Plan your SAN topology and ensure compatibility with your current HPE B-series fabric. Map out extension pathways between data centers and verify cable distances and SFP+ compatibility.
  • Prepare the installation site in a standard 19-inch rack or cabinet, ensuring adequate clearance for cooling and maintenance access around the SN2600B unit.
  • Power down the chassis or ensure hot-swappable operation if your data center supports it, then install the SN2600B into the rack and connect power supplies according to your facility’s electrical standards.
  • Connect the 4 x 16Gb Short Wave SFP+ ports to the designated SAN fabric interfaces, matching zoning and LUN requirements with adjacent storage switches and directors.
  • Power up the switch and use the established management interface to configure fabric parameters, zoning, and security policies. Validate link status, throughput, and path availability across all connected endpoints.

Frequently asked questions

  • Q: What is the primary purpose of the HPE SN2600B? The SN2600B is a SAN Extension Switch designed to bridge storage area networks between data centers, enabling multisite deployment, replication, and robust data protection across block, file, and tape environments.
  • Q: How many ports does the SN2600B provide for SAN extension? It features 4-port 16Gb Short Wave SFP+ interfaces for high-speed, long-distance extension of the SAN fabric, paired with 32Gb Fibre Channel capability per link.
  • Q: Is the SN2600B compatible with other HPE B-series switches? Yes. The SN2600B is built to integrate with the HPE B-series ecosystem, allowing existing fabrics to scale without major architectural changes and leveraging familiar management tools.
  • Q: What workloads can benefit most from the SN2600B? Midrange storage environments running mission-critical block workloads, distributed file storage, and data protection tasks (backup and disaster recovery) across multiple sites will see the greatest benefits from extended SAN connectivity and improved recovery times.
  • Q: How does the SN2600B improve multisite data protection? By enabling efficient, high-speed SAN extension between data centers, it supports replication workflows, synchronous or asynchronous replication strategies, and centralized management for cross-site protection plans.
  • Q: What should I consider when installing? Plan for zoning, path management, and compatibility with your storage arrays; ensure proper cabling distances for Short Wave SFP+ links; and validate performance under expected workloads after deployment.

Simple and Effective Remote Organization
Color: Black, Size: Small
The Pros: Spacious Design: With five deep pockets, there is plenty of room to store everything from TV and soundbar remotes to reading glasses. Functional and Steady: It sits perfectly on a side table without tipping over. It does exactly what I hoped it would do by keeping all our remotes in one spot. Great Portability: It is lightweight enough to move around easily, which is helpful for keeping things organized while we are on the move. Clean Finish: The material looks professional and blends in well with the furniture without looking like a cheap plastic holder. The Cons: Pocket Depth: One thing to keep in mind is that the pockets are fairly deep. If you have very small remotes, they can slide down a bit far, making them slightly trickier to grab quickly. Bottom Line: This is a straightforward, no-fuss solution if you are tired of losing remotes in the couch cushions. It is well-made, looks good, and simply works. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking to declutter their living space.

Nice look, perfect size and great price!
Color: Black, Size: Small
Absolutely perfect for 5 remotes. The bins are deep and very wide. It's a very reasonable price and it's compact size fits in smaller spaces so it doesn't take up a lot of room. Also, you can't beat the price and genuine leather. Good in any room.

My remote caddy
Color: Black, Size: Small
I have so many gadgets that uses remotes, my end table looked awful with remotes everywhere and when I would move something, a remote would fall off the table. It was aggravating but now I have a nice caddy to sit on my table and it holds all of my remotes. It's beautifully designed and was shipped to me very quickly. I think it was in my mailbox within 24 hours. I'm very pleased with the item and the person I purchased it from was quick to get it to me. Thank you.

Great product
Color: Black, Size: Small
This is great to store multiple remotes in a small footprint clearing up table room. My 6 year old Grandson loves it also keeping remotes in one area. He operates the TV also. We loved it so much we bought a second for another room.
