Fibre Channel products are available at 1, 2, 4, 8, 10, 16, 32, 64 and 128 Gbit/s; these protocol flavors are called accordingly 1GFC, 2GFC, 4GFC, 8GFC, 10GFC, 16GFC, 32GFC, 64GFC or 128GFC. The 32GFC standard was approved by the INCITS T11 committee in 2013, and those products became available in.
