TECHNICAL
HIGHLIGHTS
High-Performance Fibre Channel-to-SCSI Bridging
Architecture for tomorrow’s faster drives
The ATTO FibreBridge™ 2350C is an
embeddable Fibre Channel-to-SCSI
bridge featuring one (1) Fibre Channel
port with a 2-Gigabit SFP connector and
two (2) independent Ultra3 SCSI busses
and a standardized 4U cPCI form factor.
The ATTO FibreBridge 2350C is the ideal
bridging component to allow mid-range
native SCSI storage devices to be
incorporated into Fibre Channel networks.
It offers a winning combination of
performance, versatility and affordability
for current and next-generation
SCSI-based storage solutions.
The standardized physical design enables
manufacturers to centralize on a common
component design across multiple
product lines while maintaining
distinct interface technologies.
ATTO’s built-in intelligent Bridging
Architecture™ offers a unique combination
of features that gives manufacturers
the ability to embed customized value
into their products.
