ATTO Celerity FC-22XH Storage Adapter
Dual-channel 2-Gigabit Fibre Channel Storage Adapter with
Four External Hub Ports Featuring ADS™ Technology
ATTO Celerity storage adapters are an integrated
family of advanced storage connectivity
solutions. The Celerity FC-22XH uses embedded
hub technology that provides four external
connections from two independent FC ports.
It simplifi es SAN fabric design and provides
more capabilities than other dual-channel
adapters.
The Celerity FC-22XH provides high performance
and reliability through award-winning hardware
design. When using the FC-22XH in SAN
confi gurations, precise signal quality and low
emissions improve the data link and reduce
overall consumption of fabric bandwidth.
Additionally, the FC-22XH automatically
bypasses unused / malfunctioning ports,
increasing fabric integrity.
TECHNICAL
HIGHLIGHTS
• Dual-channel 2.125-Gigabit Fibre
Channel storage adapter
Unique FC-22XH hardware features extend the
capabilities of other SAN software and hardware,
relieving them from their data management
burdens. The onboard hub provides four external
connections. This allows the adapter to be used
as a standard dual channel product, or users
can take advantage of the extra ports to increase
the number of available connections per expansion
slot. This decreases the cost of connectivity.
This exclusive design eliminates the need for
fabric hubs, simplifi es the fabric design and
reduces hardware costs.
The FC-22XH is part of ATTO’s Celerity family of
storage connectivity products. These products
are designed to provide reliable connectivity,
intelligence and scalability. Meeting tomorrow’s
connectivity needs today, Celerity FC adapters
extend the capabilities of software and hardware,
relieving them from their data-management
burdens.
