Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of network equipment technology, and in particular relates to a storage fiber optic switch port isolation module for preventing signal crosstalk. Background Technology
[0002] A fiber optic switch is a high-speed network transmission relay device, also known as a Fibre Channel switch or SAN switch. Compared to ordinary switches, it uses fiber optic cable as the transmission medium. The advantages of fiber optic transmission are high speed and strong anti-interference capability. There are two main types of fiber optic switches: one is the FC switch used to connect storage, and the other is an Ethernet switch with fiber optic interfaces. These interfaces look the same as ordinary electrical interfaces, but the interface type is different. The Escon interface, designed by IBM, can support a data rate of 200 MB / s in full-duplex mode over fiber optics. This is typically the interface for connecting server hosts or SAN switches. Depending on the configuration, the transmission distance supported by the Escon interface can reach 3 to 10 kilometers, depending on the quality of the fiber and the product characteristics.
[0003] Chinese invention patent application number 201410198632.3 discloses a full-duplex to half-duplex converter and conversion method, solving the problem of data loss or high bit error rate when a data processing card using RS422 serial communication communicates directly with a signal acquisition card using RS485 serial communication. A tri-state gate integrated circuit is set between the half-duplex signal acquisition module and the full-duplex data processing module, achieving physical isolation between the transmitting and receiving ends of the data processing card's RS422 serial port. The software-implemented functional modules solve the compatibility problem between full-duplex and half-duplex port communication by querying the receiving module's data feedback flag, eliminating data loss and bit error rate issues and ensuring the accuracy of data transmission and reception. While this solution achieves good isolation by using a tri-state gate integrated circuit, its drawback is that the tri-state gate integrated circuit is susceptible to unexpected failure due to the reliability of the integrated circuit itself, posing a risk to the safe operation of the switch.
