Marketing Information:
Designed for fast, reliable and cost-effective remote data replication and backup over long distance
The IBM® System Storage® SAN06B-R extension switch leverages advanced Fibre Channel and Fibre Channel over IP (FCIP) technology to provide a fast, highly reliable, cost-effective network infrastructure for remote data replication, backup and migration. Whether configured for simple point-to-point or comprehensive multisite SAN extension, the SAN06B-R extension switch addresses the most demanding business continuity, compliance and global data access requirements. Up to 16 8 Gbps Fibre Channel ports and six 1 Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) ports provide the Fibre Channel and FCIP bandwidth, port density and throughput required to help maximize application performance over WAN links.
A scalable, flexible SAN extension platform
The SAN06B-R switch provides an ideal platform for building or expanding a high-performance SAN extension infrastructure for disaster recovery, data protection and data mobility storage solutions. It leverages cost-effective IP WAN transport to extend open systems and mainframe disk and tape storage applications over distances that would otherwise be impossible, impractical or too expensive with standard Fibre Channel connections.
