The 140-port McDATA® Intrepid 6140 director is an ideal SAN switching solution for very large deployments. It is designed with a protocol-independent architecture to support emerging technologies, and the ability to handle FICON and Fibre Channel traffic simultaneously.
Backup and restore McDATA Intrepid directors are at the center of storage area networks (SANs) used to enable backup and restore to be shared across departments and data centers, reducing costs and simplifying management.
Disaster recovery McDATA Intrepid directors play a critical role in complete disaster recovery systems, including SANs for clustering/fail-over, remote data vaulting and backup and restore functions.
Storage consolidation By consolidating storage with a SAN using McDATA Intrepid
Disk mirroring Disk SANs employing McDATA Intrepid directors can be implemented to improve the manageability of local and remote mirroring systems, keeping online data better protected and more available.
Benefits
High Availability Hot Plug Redundant Switching and Processor Logic enables continuous operation of switching and control function logic in the event of a failure.
Smaller footprint The 140-port Intrepid 6140 director utilizes small form factor transceivers, greatly reducing the height of the overall enclosure. Port count in a cabinet totals 420.
Scalability With 140 ports, you can connect more servers, storage and switches with higher availability and less cost.
Remote disaster recovery Each port has dedicated memory (60 buffer credits) and provides 120 km distance support concurrently, making the Intrepid 6140 ideal for connecting to remote SANs for disaster recovery.
