LSI SAS6160 Switch - 16 non-blocking 24 Gb/s SAS, wide ports with zoning and extended cable length support
- Eliminates the costs of SAS-based “storage islands” in direct-attached storage (DAS) environments and enables independent growth for servers and storage in traditional SANs
- Allows for multiple servers to connect to one or more independent external storage systems enabling more efficient “scaling out” of both storage and servers in data centers and other large storage installations
