Add up to 16 SAS-3 tape drives to your network with the ATTO XstreamVIEW ET 8200T Dual 40G QSFP+ to 4-Port 12G Mini-SAS intelligent Bridge. Acting as an external adapter, this rack mountable bridge integrates with your network through two 40 Gb/s QSFP+ optical slots. Compatible tape drives may be connected through the four 12 Gb/s mini-SAS connectors using separately purchased cables.

xCORE technology helps to eliminate bottlenecks, allowing for up to 6 GB/s sustained transfer rates with < 2µ latency. Use the XstreamVIEW Storage Manager for remote configuration, management, and diagnostics.

Supports Up to 16 SAS Tape Drives    2 x 40G QSFP+ Inputs    4 x 12G Mini-SAS (SAS-3) Outputs    Up to 6 GB/s Sustained Transfer Rate    Rack Mountable    ATTO xCORE Acceleration Technology    Includes QSFP+ Transceivers    Works with XstreamVIEW Platform

The ATTO xCORE acceleration processor was developed to handle the majority of I/O operations in a hardware processing pipeline without software intervention. xCORE manages all I/O, command routing and decoding, buffer allocation, reservations, and access controls, and provides real-time data analytics. Any exception is off-ramped to the eCORE control engine to manage commands which do not require acceleration. xCORE technology enables XstreamCORE to achieve up to 1.1M 4K IOPS or 6 GB/s throughput with iSER per bridge while adding a consistent sub two microseconds of latency.
