Storage Area Network (SAN) Switches-Global Market Insights and Sales Trends 2024
Synopsis
A storage area network (SAN) switch is a device that connects servers and shared pools of storage devices and is dedicated to moving storage traffic. The SAN switch contains the Director-class switches and Fibre Channel switches.
A SAN switch is often a Fibre Channel (FC) switch, which is compatible with the Fibre Channel protocol. The FC switch checks the data packet header, determines the computing devices of origin and destination, and sends the packet to the intended storage system. An FC switch is designed for use in a high-performance network with low latency and lossless data transmission.
A SAN fabric switch contains a low to medium port count, while a director is a high port count switch (generally above 64 ports). Fibre Channel switches can be networked together to build larger storage networks. The HBA is more complex than a traditional Ethernet card.
In this report, we discussed the SAN Fibre Channel switches market and focus market volume on the port units.
The global Storage Area Network (SAN) Switches market size is expected to reach US$ million by 2029, growing at a CAGR of % from 2023 to 2029. The market is mainly driven by the significant applications of Storage Area Network (SAN) Switches in various end use industries. The expanding demands from the Financial, Telecommunications, Government and Media, are propelling Storage Area Network (SAN) Switches market. 4Gbps, one of the segments analysed in this report, is projected to record % CAGR and reach US$ million by the end of the analysis period. Growth in the 8Gbps segment is estimated at % CAGR for the next seven-year period.
