Introducing the PSFR-CP41 PSFR-CP41 Benefits

Availability

With two units, dual loop attachment provides redundancy and no single

point of failure.

Connectivity

SCSI devices may be attached to Fibre Channel storage networks to share

data and increase address space.

Distance

SCSI cable length from hosts to devices is increased from 25m to 10,000m,

facilitating remote or disaster tolerant sites.

Performance

100 Mbytes/sec Fibre Channel (200 Mbytes/sec bi-directional) offers

increased bandwidth when distributing data across multiple SCSI devices.

Reliability

Low error rates, robust error recovery and flow control provide an enterprise

with reliable data delivery.

Scalability

Point-to-point links can be expanded to multi-initiator links supporting inter-

connected servers, tape drives, tape libraries, disk drives and disk arrays.

Flexibility

The PSFR-CP41 allows Fibre Channel initiators to communicate with SCSI

targets, as well as SCSI initiators to communicate with Fibre Channel

targets, simultaneously.

Consolidation

The PSFR-CP41 allowsmultiple servers to share tape drives, tape libraries,

disk drives and disk arrays.

Centralization

The PSFR-CP41 enables existing storage to be moved to a central location

to simplify management and maintenance, and to improve security.

Lower TCO

Improving storage management, maintenance and security can lower Total

Cost of Ownership (TCO) for enterprise storage.

How the PSFR-CP41 Works Introducing the PSFR-CP41

How the PSFR-CP41 Works

The PSFR-CP41 acts as a pass-though device that translates Fibre Channel

FCP to and from a SCSI bus so devices on these two types of media can

communicate with each other. It attaches to either a Fibre Channel or SCSI

host, and transfers the command, data, and status information to SCSI or Fibre

Channel targets. The host passes packets to SCSI or Fibre Channel targets as

if the PSFR-CP41 were just another device along the path.

The PSFR-CP41 provides connections for a single SCSI bus and a Fibre

Channel Arbitrated Loop or Switched Fabric. It takes advantage of Fibre

Channel’s ability to encapsulate SCSI protocol packets to allow ahost with a FC

or SCSI adapter to access SCSI or FC peripheral devices transparently over a

FC connection.

Fibre Channel-to-SCSI configuration

The figure shows a Fibre Channel-to-SCSI configuration. Through the PSFR-

CP41 router, any host on the Fibre Channel loop can access thetape drive and

library on the SCSI bus.
