iPBridge
iSCSI-to-Fibre Channel Bridge
Ideal for connecting Fibre Channel
Storage Networks to an IP SAN
As the amount of data generated by users in or-
ganizations continues to increase, managing tradi-
tional direct-attached methods of storing data be-
comes a more difficult and time-consuming task.

The ATTO iPBridge
growing issue by providing high-performance
iSCSI-to-Fibre Channel connectivity. Since iSCSI
technology utilizes existing Ethernet infrastructures
already supported natively by many servers, de-
coupling Direct Attached Storage (DAS) from indi-
vidual servers and reaping the benefits of net-
worked storage is a simple task. Servers can now
utilize an organization's Fibre Channel SAN for pur-
poses such as backup and resource consolidation.
All iPBridges offer additional value through ATTO-
designed technologies. Performance of the bridge
is optimized through the utilization of ATTO's
SpeedWrite feature, which efficiently queues out-
standing write commands to enhance the through-
put of the bridge. Features such as e-mail
notification of errors and SNMP support serve to
reduce downtime and increase productivity. The
ever-increasing security concerns of today are ad-
dressed through support for both Virtual LANs
(VLANs) and Access Control Lists (ACLs.) Initial
installation and configuration is a painless task due
to the ExpressWizard configuration assistant,
which helps optimize the bridge for specific applica-
tion needs by asking a series of basic questions.
Management of the bridge is simplified with Ex-
pressNAV, ATTO's web-based management GUI
which provides an easy interface to configure,
manage and diagnose ATTO iPBridges.
The iPBridge 2700 is the leading choice for high-
performance iSCSI-to-Fibre Channel bridging avail-
able today, thanks to industry-leading support for 4-
Gigabit Fibre Channel. Support for both FC and
iSCSI protocols allows storage devices such as
disk drives, tape drives and libraries, and CD juke-
boxes to easily attach to IP networks.
