iSR6142 
iSR6142 

The iSR6142 Intelligent Storage Router is designed for SAN over WAN connectivity. Improved performance using SmartWrite™ can be realized through a license key upgrade.  

 

 
SAN Over WAN Replication and Data Migration

The iSR6142 provides SAN over WAN connection for data replicationand disaster recovery. The iSR6142 features SmartWrite, QLogic's patent-pending technology for accelerating replication over iSCSI, based on QLogic's unique Layer 3 SCSI routing capabilities. SmartWrite optimizes key data management and migration operations by increasing the amount of data within a packet and by reducing the total transfer time across the WAN. The iSR6142 sets a new price performance mark in the industry for SAN over WAN connection.
 

Key Advantages of the 6142
  • Lower WAN costs with SmartWrite
  • Improved ROI by sharing SAN resources globally
  • Improved data transfer performance
Leading Applications for the 6142
  • Disaster recovery for business continuance
  • Data migration for applications
  • Replication of data for backup
  • Sharing SAN devices to improve utilization
  • Connected SAN islands over WANS and LANs
SAN Bridging for Improving SAN Utilization and ROI

The iSR6142 is the ideal tool to expand the reach and connectivity of SANs by bridging SAN fabrics. It enables sharing SAN devices independently across SAN fabrics. By providing true SAN independence, the iSR6142 improves SAN scalability. The iSR6142 offers unparalleled ease of integration, based on the same proven QLogic ASIC technology that powers over 50 million storage products sold by leading storage vendors. IT managers can now connect SAN devices across any vendor's SAN infrastructure, improving utilization and SAN ROI.

 
SAN over WAN Connectivity
  • Optimizes SAN over WAN transfer to improve performance and reduces costs. SmartWrite™ helps improve SAN over WAN performance by reducing the latency of WAN transfers. The iSR6142 increases productivity by optimizing data transfers, sharing devices, and replicating data.
  • Increases ROI by enabling SANs to grow and scale independently. Many other SAN extension solutions merge SAN fabrics, which limits the number of SAN switches and devices. The iSR6142 removes the limitations of a single name service.
  • Easy to use and own, with advanced install and configuration wizards that allow set up in less than 15 minutes. The iSR6142 is very power efficient, using only 48W, and helps reduce power and cooling versus competitive products.
  • Improves data protection. The iSR6142, with Smart Write and FCIP support, has been tested and certified with leading replication and data management applications from EMC, HDS, Symantec/Veritas, IBM, Legato, HP, NetApp, and many more.
     
Benefits
  • QLogic's iSR6142 multi-protocol router provides low-cost bridging and routing services that connect SAN islands across the enterprise. This enables IT managers to improve the performance and lower the cost of data protection, replication, SAN extension and disaster recovery.
  • The iSR6142 provides SAN connectivity over WANs by routing Fibre Channel over standard Ethernet, expanding and bridging SANs around the globe.
