ALSO CALLED: Fiber Channel SAN, Fibre, Fibre Channel Storage Area Networks, Fiber Channel Storage Area Networks, and Fibre Channel Storage DEFINITION: FCoE (Fibre Channel over Ethernet) is a proposed standard designed to enable Fibre Channel communications to run directly over Ethernet. Thus, FCoE makes it possible to move Fibre Channel traffic across existing high-speed Ethernet infrastructures and extend the reach and capability

FIBRE CHANNEL SAN DEFINITION (continued): of storage area networks (SANs). This ability allows organizations to protect and extend existing investments in their storage networks. FCoE competes with iSCSI.
Fibre Channel supports high-speed data connections between computing devices that interconnect servers with shared storage devices and between storage controllers and drives. FCoE retains the same device communications but substitutes high-speed Ethernet links (usually, 1 Gbps or faster) for Fibre Fibre Channel SAN definition sponsored by SearchStorage.com, powered by WhatIs.com an online computer dictionary
