Most respondents to our June poll seem to take this 4-Gbit/s viewpoint. A full 42 percent say they expect mass deployment of 2-Gbit/s technology to meet ongoing customer bandwidth demands. Thirty percent say the new gear will come in most handy for upping the throughput of servers; 29 percent say it will help most between switches and storage arrays.
Our poll respondents dont underestimate the naysayers, though. Thirty-five percent say customers reluctance to upgrade will be the main obstacle to mass 4-Gbit/s deployment. Thirty-four percent say they believe resistance from unsupportive Fibre Channel vendors will be the main impediment.
