This paper provides an overview of network architecture, network building block, and network application issues involved in the insertion of Fibre Channel (FC) Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) technology into avionics systems. At the network architecture level, FC supports a simple and low cost Arbitrated Loop (FC-AL) topology which is extensible to fabric switch architectures. A COTS FC testbed is described which has been constructed to characterize FC-AL performance for defined domain-specific avionics scenarios. The testbed is also being used to prototype an avionics multimedia network via integration of FC COTS network controllers and software with streaming video encoders and decoders. Based on lessons learned from the testbed activity and other FC system architecture insertion studies, a set of FC based domain extended products suitable for insertion into avionics systems is identified. Finally future activities required to continue toward a fully capable FC Avionics Multimedia Network (AMN) are described.
