Many IT managers have been hesitant to extend SAN access beyond their mission-critical applications to
midrange data center applications because of the complexity and cost involved in upgrading large
numbers of midrange servers to Fibre Channel. The Cisco MDS 9000 18/4 addresses these limitations
by enabling IT organizations to extend their storage networks using cost-effective Ethernet infrastructure.
All the benefits of SANs, including increased storage utilization, centralized backups, easier addition of
incremental storage capacity, management simplification, and reduced overall total cost of ownership
(TCO), can be extended to a new range of applications. Because the Cisco MDS 9000 18/4 is an
integral component of the Cisco MDS 9000 Family, Ethernet attached servers will enjoy the same SAN
scalability, availability, manageability, and intelligent services as those servers connected directly to a
Fibre Channel SAN, while maintaining the cost and ease-of-use benefits of Ethernet and IP.
