OverviewHistoryEtymologyCharacteristicsTopologiesLayersPortsMedia and modules
Fibre Channel is standardized in the T11 Technical Committee of the International Committee for Information Technology Standards (INCITS), an American National Standards Institute (ANSI)-accredited standards committee. Fibre Channel started in 1988, with ANSI standard approval in 1994, to merge the benefits of multiple physical layer implementations including SCSI, HIPPI and ESCON. Fibre Channel was designed as a serial interface to overcome limitations of the SCSI and HIPPI physic
