TECHNICAL
HIGHLIGHTS
The ATTO FibreBridge™ 1290E is an
embeddable Fibre Channel-to-SCSI
bridge featuring one (1) Fibre Channel
Port with (2) Ultra160 SCSI ports. For
entry- to mid-range capacity storage
media vendors who require 2-Gigabit
performance, the 1290E provides a
compact solution with a ready-to-
integrate interface for a wide range
of applications. The 1290E enables
SCSI-based storage media vendors to
easily integrate the benefits of Fibre
Channel and application support (i.e.
serverless backup and FCP-2) without
having to modify existing enclosures
or systems. Proprietary to ATTO and
built into every FibreBridge is intel-
ligent Bridging Architecture™. This
unique combination of features offers
manufacturers the ability to embed
customized value into their products.
