PORTrockIT
Six compelling reasons for Bandwidth Management provided by PORTrockIT
- Normal time to transfer a file = 20 minutes. With Bandwidth Management = 40 seconds
- Backup to a tape library in New York from a backup target in London
- Replicate NAS Storage or Databases to meet business critical SLAs
- Reduce spending on redundant replicated storage
- Remote offices, ships, rigs, outposts on thin network connections can have centralised backups
- Utilise 98% of your available WAN bandwidth (most organisations use an average of 20%)
Move massive amounts of data across the WAN at the speed of light! Overcome latency, reduce backup windows, improve RPO or just reduce the cost of network links.
Bridgeworks have taken a completely different approach to solving the latency issue – something that cripples long (and even short-distance) replication activity - by discarding techniques that optimise the data before transmission, which usually means expensive hardware, no support for compressed or encrypted data and a large amount of tuning and hand-holding needed to maintain any kind of effective throughout.
- Eliminate distance issues upon achievable bandwidth
- Manage data more efficiently
- Maximize resource utilisation
- Shorten Recovery Time Objectives
- Replicate without pain cross-site
- Fix back-up window issues
- Make your WAN an asset, not an overhead
- ANY data and ALL data accelerated
- No WAN storage required or needed
- Remote Replication - finally there is a cost effective solution
- Risk Free - no rip and replace
- Bring your remote sites into the corporate fold

With the growth of 40Gb Ethernet within the Data Centre, we have released the Oresund EFC402200 for connecting iSCSI to the existing Fibre Channel infrastructure, and the Potomac ESA402800 to allow iSCSI direct connection to low-cost SAS devices.
Oresund FCE102200 Fibre Channel To ISCSI Gateway
The FCE102200 Fibre Channel to 10Gb iSCSI Gateway is a high performance protocol gateway for connecting fibre Channel based Servers to iSCSI enabled peripherals such as Disks, Tape Drives, Tape Libraries and Optical devices. The FCE102200 is housed in an industry standard 1U 19” rack mount enclosure with integral power supplies and cooling. Connectivity to the IP Network is via 2 auto-sensing 10Gb Ethernet ports that can detect the network connection speed, whilst the Fibre Channel Network is connected via 2 8Gb auto-sensing ports.
