      Agere Core Handles Serial Storage Interfaces

      Agere Systems announced a configurable physical-layer core that can handle three serial storage interfaces. The serializer/deserializer block will support Serial ATA (SATA), Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) or Fibre Channel interfaces for disk drives and host bus controllers when it becomes available in April.

      Storage Network Switches Saw Sales Spurt

      Worldwide sales of SAN switches grew 15 percent year-over-year to $954 million in 2002 — and will hit $1.1 billion this year, according to a report published this week by the DellOro Group. The major driver of growth last year appears to be the transition from 1-Gbit/s to 2-Gbit/s Fibre Channel switches. The study revealed that 2-Gbit/s FC switches accounted for more than 95 percent of fourth-quarter 2002 sales, versus less than 20 percent in the same quarter in 2001.
