Fibre Channel-Arbitrated Loop
< hardware, standard> (FC-AL) A fast serial bus interface standard intended to replace href="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=SCSI">SCSI on hig h-end href="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=servers">servers. FC-AL has a number of advantages over SCSI. It offers hig her speed: t he base speed is 100 href="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=megabytes">megabytes per second, wit h 200, 400, and 800 planned. Many devices are dual ported, i.e., can be accessed t hroug h two independent ports, w hic h doubles speed and increases fault tolerance. Cables can be as long as 30 m (coaxial) or 10 km (optical). FC-AL enables href="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=self-configuring">self-configuring and href="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=hot swapping">hot swapping and t he maximum number of devices on a single port is 126. Finally, it provides software compatibility wit h SCSI. Despite all t hese features FC-AL is unlikely to appear on desktops anytime soon, partly because its price, partly because typical href="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=desktop computers">desktop computers would not take advantage of many of t he advanced features. On t hese systems href="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=FireWire">FireWire has more potential. [Current status?
