Introduction: iSCSI provides storage options

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 iPBridge 1500 and the ATTO iPBridge 1550 support the high throughput needs of streaming data transfers, optimizing performance and management using ATTO Technology intelligent Bridging Architecture™.
The iSCSI protocol
performance of storage data transmission by transmitting data over local area networks (LANs), wide area networks (WANs), or the Internet, providing location-independent data storage and retrieval to enhance current and future Storage Area Networks (SANs).

Introduction

1 Setting up the iPBridge

The ATTO bridge family of products provides GbE-to-SCSI or Fibre Channel-to-SCSI bridges available as embeddable boards, stand alone enclosures that can be fitted for rackmount integration, or desktop units, depending on the model and your needs.
The ATTO iPBridge and ATTO FibreBridge family of products share common configuration options and functions to provide the most versatile connectivity options available. Each product has been engineered to address specific customer needs. New capabilities are integrated into products throughout the family as much as possible, requiring only an upgrade of firmware to incorporate them into your SAN (Storage Area Network) or NAS (Network Attached Storage).
The ATTO iPBridge 1500E/D is a low cost single­channel iSCSI-to-SCSI bridge that enables existing Direct-Attached Storage solutions to be integrated into an Ethernet network allowing IT departments to leverage existing investment in SCSI storage and Ethernet infrastructure and expertise.
The ATTO iPBridge 1550E/D is a cost-effective way of expanding your existing storage capacity without sacrificing performance. The ATTO iPBridge 1550E/D is ideally suited to the SME or for corporate IT departments seeking to expand storage requirements with minimal disruption while making existing SCSI equipment accessible over an Ethernet network to all network users.
To make sure you have the most up-to-date version of the firmware, visit the ATTO Technology website, www.attotech.com.
