ATTO Powers actidata T-Pontis® iSCSI-to-SAS Bridges
The use of the iSCSI protocol over 10Gb-Ethernet provides a simple and cost-effective solution for managing and operating LTO Tape Libraries both directly in the data center or in a remotely installed IT rack. The actidata T-Pontis 10GbE iSCSI Bridge offers the necessary performance features here. With two 10Gb optical Ethernet interfaces, up to four LTO drives can be served both from a dedicated backup and archive server or directly from a virtual machine (VM). Thanks to iSCSI, the actidata T-Pontis iSCSI Bridge operates independently from central operating systems and is controlled via a server based installed iSCSI initiator.
