ATTO XstreamCORE Ethernet 8100T for scalable deployments - 10Gb Ethernet to 12Gb SAS Intelligent Bridge
XstreamCORE ET 8100T is an accelerated intelligent bridging device that extends tape storage connectivity to up to 4 SAS-LTO Tape drives over a 10Gb iSCSI Ethernet network. Use it for smaller tape installations – up to 4 tape drives per 8100T – or connect multiple 8100T bridges together to support large scale tape collections.
8100T leverages ATTO Distributed Software Architecture, a self-optimizing OS designed for storage applications. This architecture prioritizes transaction efficiency and high-performance memory management, ultimately maximizing storage application performance.
Over the last decade, IT complexity has grown exponentially as data growth
continues to strain critical infrastructure resources. The development of cloud
platforms, big data, data analytics, and distributed computing has led to an
increase in the number and scale of data center deployments. Extending
connectivity to SAS tape beyond the rack has always been challenging as it is
limited by the SAS interface.
Data protection and backup has moved to a decentralized model which has
resulted in the creation of silos across multiple locations. This could be within the
same data center, across a campus or even at edge computing locations. ATTO
XstreamCORE ET 8100T helps bridge this gap by elevating common control for
backup and archive workflows across an Ethernet network. Additionally, File and
Object Storage are growing at a much faster rate than block storage. Ethernet is
better suited to handling this unstructured data while providing a lower cost of
implementation compared to Fibre Channel tape connectivity.
Power Backup & Archive with Unmatched Simplicity and Efficiency
ATTO XstreamCORE ET 8100T is a simple, purpose-built, and cost-effective
intelligent bridging solution allowing businesses and enterprises to deploy
secured and shared access to tape storage over a 10Gb Ethernet iSCSI network.
Powered by a custom chipset and ATTO engineered software, 8100T sets a new
standard for tape library connectivity. 8100T allows up to eight iSCSI host logins
to connect up to four SAS tape drives with an aggregate throughput of up to
2000 MBps, maximizing drive shareability.
XstreamCORE 8100T features patented ATTO SpeedWrite technology to ensure
that tape drives fully utilize the available bandwidth. The bridge is equipped
with a dedicated management interface that uses a secure CLI or a user-friendly
web-based tool for ease of setup and diagnostics. XstreamCORE 8100T offers
a secure digital pathway to integrate data resilience for protecting sensitive
business applications and customer data, ensuring workplace collaboration and
productivity, and fueling growth.
