The Brocade Silkworm 3200 (part number 80-0000755-10) is an 8-port Fibre Channel switch designed for mid-range SAN environments. It supports 2 Gbps Fibre Channel connectivity per port, delivering up to 16 Gbps aggregate throughput. The switch features a compact form factor suitable for rack or desktop deployment and includes both Fibre Channel ports for storage and server connectivity. Compatible with standard Fibre Channel HBAs and storage arrays, the Silkworm 3200 is commonly deployed in departmental SANs, backup and archival systems, and environments requiring reliable block-level storage networking without high-density port counts. Typical use cases include mid-sized virtualization clusters, database servers, and shared storage access where Fibre Channel provides deterministic performance over longer distances than direct-attached storage.
