whitepaper Innovation Network Lecture Series: The Journey Towards the Converged Data Center - Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) and ISCSI2009-09-02 EMC
  For decades, the IT industry has tried out a number of technologies, looking for one that can provide a single network that could accommodate all traffic needs. Ethernet has long been considered a top contender, but only now with the development of 10 Gb Ethernet, is there real opportunity for a truly converged data center with a single network supporting both storage and data traffic. Both the FCoE (Fibre Channel over Ethernet) and iSCSI (SCSI over TCP/IP) protocols provide paths to reach this goal. The presenter of this webcast will examine the journey of innovation in storage networking. It will then review the components for both iSCSI and FCoE technologies and cover some of the core concepts of their uses as storage technologies.

whitepaper Ensuring Power Substation Reliability at the Highest Level2009-09-01 Intel
  Moxa wanted to build a platform for substation automation that could handle a large number of LAN and serial ports while withstanding high temperatures in a fanless, 1U standard rack-mount form factor. The new DA-681 Series rack-mount embedded computer is designed to service the communications traffic generated by as many as six Ethernet ports and a mix of twelve RS-232/RS-485 ports. This high level of I/O capacity and flexibility is needed as power substations transition from analog to digital, which requires integrated communications and control systems for managing various equipment inside a power substation.
