| Bridgeworks, a global cost leader in data transfer solutions for 22 years has further reduced the cost of implementing iSCSI based SANs. By combining years of experience in this field with latest ASICs and manufacturing techniques, Bridgeworks has produced a highly efficient, cost effective design, which makes iSCSI SAN connectivity a practical alternative for small systems users. Cost Effective SolutionsWith the advent of iSCSI, and its use of TCP/IP as the transport mechanism, it is now possible for any organization to gain all the benefits that a SAN can bring to data management by using their existing network technology. Because TCP/IP is a widely used and understood, there is no need to employ additional personnel or staff training programs to manage the infrastructure. Bridgeworks reduces the cost of implementing an iSCSI based SAN by providing iSCSI to SCSI connectivity. This functionality allows organizations to retain existing investment in SCSI based storage devices by bringing them into the SAN. Simply Plug n' PlayThe plug n' play Potomac family is extremely easy to implement and use. The web based in-band GUI ensures users trouble free operation and configuration. With native support for disk, tape, optical and media changer devices, the Potomac range of products offers users maximum flexibility for all their storage needs. Potomac Entry Level iSCSI BridgeThe Entry Level Bridge has been designed to give a cost effective solution for customers who wish to include their legacy SCSI devices in an iSCSI network The Potomac Bridge gives a cost effective alternative to the use of full performance, high end bridging solutions. With a sustained performance capability of 45MB/s combined with its very compact size, it is at equally at home on the desk top connected to a tape device as a remote backup device, or in the server rack connected to a departmental Autoloader. Potomac Small Enterprise iSCSI Solution The Small Enterprise iSCSI Bridge has been designed to give a cost effective solution for customers who wish to include their legacy SCSI devices in an iSCSI network. The Potomac Bridge gives a cost effective alternative to the use of full performance, high end bridging solutions. With a sustained performance capability of 60MB/s in a compact 1U rack mount enclosure; the Small Enterprise Bridge is ideal for inclusion in the server rack connected to a departmental Autoloader or SCSI RAID unit Dual Bridge Unit For applications where space is limited or where an extra level of performance is required, the Small Enterprise iSCSI Bridge is available with two independent iSCSI Bridges mounted in a single1U rack mount unit.
