X4 - 4Gb Fibre to Fibre Solution
Highest
Performance End-to-End Fibre Controllers
The X4 comes in a 3U 16-bay chassis powered by dual
4Gb controllers and (12) 4Gb channels for maximum bandwidth. With
extraordinary scalability and high throughput, your demands for
capacity and performance can be easily fulfilled. The X4 comes in
a backplane-based enclosure with redundant, hot-swappable component
pairs. Operation statuses are constantly available via comprehensive
interfaces such as LCD screen, firmware utility, or across the network
via telnet console and browser. Drive expansion is easily achieved
through dual-loop extension to X4 SBODs (JBODs with switching technology)
by converting two of the FC channels to drive mode.
