	Dr. Dobb's \| Brush Up on Storage Networking Protocol Fundamentals: Part II \| September 22, 2006
		ESCON is now being replaced by the FICON architecture to avail mainframes of the cost/performance benefits enabled by mainstream adoption of Fibre Channel.
		ESCON is a proprietary IBM technology introduced in 1990 to overcome the limitations of the Bus-and-Tag parallel channel architecture.
		ESCON is connection-oriented, meaning that the host channel adapter and CU must exchange link-level frames to reserve resources for a logical connection before exchanging channel protocol frames.

	ESCON - a Whatis.com definition
		ESCON (Enterprise Systems Connection) is a marketing name for a set of IBM and vendor products that interconnect S/390 computers with each other and with attached storage, locally attached workstations, and other devices using optical fiber technology and dynamically modifiable switches called ESCON Directors.
		In IBM mainframes, the local interconnection of hardware units is known as channel connection (and sometimes as local connection to distinguish it from remote or telecommunication connection).
		ESCON, Fibre Channel, and Small Computer System Interface are three alternative technologies used in storage area networks (storage area network).

	What is ESCON? - a definition from Whatis.com
		In IBM mainframes, the local interconnection of hardware units is known as channel connection (and sometimes as local connection to distinguish it from remote or telecommunication connection).
		ESCON, Fibre Channel, and Small Computer System Interface are three alternative technologies used in storage area networks (storage area network).
		In the early 1990s, ESCON replaced a much slower and more cumbersome system of interconnecting mainframes and attached devices known as the bus-and-tag cable.

	ESCON MUX Optical Card Product Overview - Ciena
		The ESCON MUX Optical Card enables the CN 2600 Multiservice Edge Aggregator to multiplex 12 ESCON signals into a single OC-48 wavelength, making it the highest density ESCON MUX card in the industry.
		It monitors the fidelity of the received signals in their native ESCON format, enabling service providers to guarantee Service Layer Agreements (SLAs) and provide easier fault isolation, in case of a service outage.
		Once the ESCON channels are mapped into an OC-48/STM-16 payload, the aggregate signal is converted into a Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing (CWDM) wavelength using pluggable Gigabit interface converters.

	ESCON
		ESCON (or Enterprise Systems Connection) is a serial interface for connecting IBM mainframe storage and other devices.
		ESCON is capable of half-duplex communication at a rate of 17 MB/second over distances of up to 43 kilometers.
		The substantially faster FICON, which runs over Fibre Channel, is supplanting ESCON.

	ESCON vs Ethernet [Mon, 29 Mar 2004]
		I have done some elimentary reading on ESCON, and it appears that the channel connection can cover that distance, but the network and system architechture teams are questioning the need for that type of connectivity and are proposing dedicated ghz ethernet.
		ESCON is a somewhat direct connect and ethernet would involve gateways, firewalls, and other nodes.
		ESCON has dedicated PE's, but unless we approach the 1200 sessions per node/gateway limit is this a problem?

	ESCON Connector
		The Enterprise System Connection Architectureª, ESCON, was developed by IBM as a channel connection architecture with the intent of improving connectivity by incorporating fibre optics into a network.
		ESCON uses fibre optics to replace existing bus and tag cables in a new or existing data centre.
		Hybrid patchcords, terminated one end with an ESCON connector and the other end with MT-RJ, LC, ST or SC can be made to your specific length requirements.

	ESCON
		Der Artikel ESCON gehört zur Kategorie: Netzwerkprotokoll, Optische Nachrichtentechnik
		ESCON (Enterprise Systems CONnection) ist ein Protokoll, welches von Mainframes verwendet wird, um den Datenaustausch zwischen dem Rechner einerseits und seinen Peripheriegeräten andererseits (z.B. Plattensubsysteme, Bandlauferke oder Bandbibliotheken) durchzuführen.
		ESCON war ab 1990 bis zur Markteinführung von FICON das Kommunikationsprotokoll zwischen Mainframe-Rechner und deren Peripherie.

		Switch manufacturer McData has built on its ESCON (Enterprise System Connection) ties with IBM with the release in the US of FICON Management Server software, which is designed to allow automated control of FICON and ESCON storage networks from one interface.
		FICON, a combination of Fibre Channel and ESCON, promises transfer rates of 100MB per second (whereas ESCON offer 17MB per second), and has become one of the connection technology focuses for IBM as it made FICON available in Shark Enterprise Server.
		FICON Management Server is a step towards supporting this migration strategy from multiple ESCON channels to a single FICON channel, as it provides users with management capabilities of McData's Enterprise Fabric Connectivity Manager in-band to retain the look and feek of IBM's System Automation for OS/390.

	Optica Technologies Inc - PRIZM™ FICON to ESCON Protocol Converter Appliance
		FICON migration at the host level without the disruption and cost of upgrading to FICON devices offers IT managers many potential advantages including relief for ESCON channel constraints, consolidation or elimination of ESCON director infrastructure that can be costly to maintain, and the ability to progress to a single and consistent cable infrastructure.
		Prizm provides a means for phased migrations as technology is refreshed on the mainframe, but not necessarily at the device level due to storage device leasing cycles or simply based on a desire to continue to utilize existing, fully depreciated ESCON storage assets.
		In many cases, Prizm could replace existing ESCON channel extension solutions that are harder to manage and costly to maintain.
