ISO/IEC 14165-141:2001
Scope
This part of ISO/IEC 14165 describes generic requirements for a communications transport medium called the Fabric, an entity that pro-vides switched interconnect between pairs of user attachment points. Fabrics may be imple-mented using one or more topologies and this document describes requirements that are ge-neric across all topologies.
A companion document, ISO/IEC 14165-111, Fibre Channel - Physical and Signaling Inter-face (FC-PH), describes the physical interface, transmission protocol, and signaling protocol of high-performance serial links which attach user nodes to the Fabric. The Fabric serves to ex-tend these serial links between pairs of attach-ment points. ISO/IEC 14165-111, FC-PH also describes features and behaviors of the Fabric required by user nodes.
