1 ATTO iPBridge 2700 provides storage options
The ATTO iPBridgeTM 2700C/R/D iSCSI to Fibre Channel bridge offers an affordable opportunity to transform Fibre Channel storage into
The iSCSI protocol allows storage devices such as hard drives, tape drives and libraries and CD jukeboxes to attach easily to Internet Protocol networks such as Gigabit Ethernet. The ATTO iPBridge supports the high throughput needs of streaming data transfers, optimizing performance and management using ATTO Technology intelligent Bridging Architecture™.
Gigabit Ethernet (GbE): a transmission
technology based on the Ethernet format and protocol used in local area networks (LANs), providing a data rate of 1 billion bits per second (one gigabit) as defined in the IEEE 802.3 standard.
The iSCSI protocol: increases the capabilities and performance of storage data transmission by transmitting data over local area networks (LANs), wide area networks (WANs), or the Internet, providing
The iSCSI protocol enables complete SAN solutions based on a Gigabit Ethernet network infrastructure. iSCSI is a logical SAN alternative to
ATTO iPBridge 2700 features, benefits
The iPB2700 is a cost effective, high performance bridge using four Gigabit Ethernet ports and two independent
The iPBridge comes in two form factors:
•4U cPCI embeddable circuit board or blade, designated as the iPBridge 2700C
•a rack mount / desktop version (13”d x 19”w x 1U) designated as the iPBridge 2700R/D
Because the iPBridge 2700C/R/D provides a compact embeddable, rack or desktop solution, you can install the iPBridge in a wide range of system configurations. Uniquely designed to support the high throughput needs for applications that require streaming data transfers (data backup), the iPBridge optimizes performance by using ATTO Technology intelligent Bridging Architecture.
