Hewlett-Packard Co (HP) has unveiled plans to expand its portfolio of networked storage offerings to include systems based on the emerging iSCSI standard.

HP's Storage on Ethernet initiative, which is designed to complement the company's Fibre Channel solutions, will provide customers with the choice to implement storage area networks (SANs) through an Ethernet, high-speed local area network media and a TCP/IP connection.

HP plans to include iSCSI disk arrays, iSCSI tape libraries, host bus adapters, Ethernet switches and gateways to existing Fibre Channel SANs in its Storage on Ethernet offerings. The company expects to deliver the first iSCSI-based systems by the end of the year.
