SANBlaze Technology Announces Higher Density 8G Fibre Channel Emulation Systems
MAYNARD, MA–(Marketwire – March 1, 2010) – SANBlaze Technology, Inc., a leading provider of storage emulation systems, today announced the availability of 20-port 8G Fibre Channel Emulation systems. Utilizing four-port Emulex LightPulse® 8G Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapters (HBAs) LPe12004, SANBlaze is able to increase the physical port density available in a 1U footprint to eight ports, and provide 20 ports in a 3U system, delivering target and initiator emulation at much higher densities. This increase in port count allows a SANBlaze target system to emulate in excess of 10,000 disk or tape devices, and up to 1,300 initiator devices, all in a 3U rack-mounted system. With an ability to emulate targets and/or initiators with a wide range of configurable attributes, the SANBlaze VirtuaLUN provides engineers with a flexible, scalable tool to simulate real data center Ethernet and Storage Area Network (SAN) environments, at a fraction of the cost of real device
