Definition: Fibre Channel, or FC, is a gigabit-speed network technology primarily used for storage networking.
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.
It started use primarily in the supercomputer field, but has become the standard connection type for storage area networks (SAN) in enterprise storage.
Despite common connotations of its name, Fibre Channel signaling can run on both twisted pair copper wire and fiber-optic cables.
Fibre Channel Protocol (FCP) is a transport protocol (similar to TCP used in IP networks) which predominantly transports SCSI commands over Fibre Channel networks.
