1 Setting up the iPBridge

The ATTO bridge family of products provides GbE-to-SCSI or Fibre Channel-to-SCSI bridges available

as embeddable boards, stand alone enclosures that can be fitted for rackmount integration, or desktop

units, depending on the model and your needs.

The ATTO iPBridge and ATTO FibreBridge

family of products share common configuration

options and functions to provide the most

versatile connectivity options available. Each

product has been engineered to address specific

customer needs. New capabilities are integrated

into products throughout the family as much as

possible, requiring only an upgrade of firmware to

incorporate them into your SAN (Storage Area

Network) or NAS (Network Attached Storage).

The ATTO iPBridge 1500E/D is a low cost single-

channel iSCSI-to-SCSI bridge that enables

existing Direct-Attached Storage solutions to be

integrated into an Ethernet network allowing IT

departments to leverage existing investment in

SCSI storage and Ethernet infrastructure and

expertise.

The ATTO iPBridge 1550E/D is a cost-effective

way of expanding your existing storage capacity

without sacrificing performance. The ATTO

iPBridge 1550E/D is ideally suited to the SME or

for corporate IT departments seeking to expand

storage requirements with minimal disruption

while making existing SCSI equipment accessible

over an Ethernet network to all network users.
