Advanced Audio Delivers Symphony Sound Using iSCSI
For clients in need of a complete storage network, nu-
merous Macs can be connected to the ATTO iPBridge
2700 via the Xtend SAN software. Multiple Fibre Chan-
nel Storage devices can then be connected to the 2700
to create a consolidated "pool" of storage. This configu-
ration provides clients with a much faster and more
streamlined workflow and ultimately saves money.
"ATTO's Xtend SAN and iPBridge 2700 provided the per-
fect solution. ATTO Technology's Xtend SAN software
product for Macintosh is a software-based iSCSI initia-
tor. This software converts any Ethernet port on the
Macintosh to an iSCSI port allowing connection to any
iSCSI device. ATTO's iPBridge 2700 receives the iSCSI
data and converts it to Fibre Channel, allowing facilities
to integrate their existing GigE infrastructure" states
Paul Levy."

Solution Synopsis
Challenges
Find a networked storage alternative to FireWire that
could support HD audio and sampling rates of up to
192kHz. The solution needed to connect to the Macin-
tosh Ethernet port and also provide Fibre Channel con-
nectivity.
Solution
A networked configuration featuring ATTO iPBridge 2700
and ATTO's Xtend SAN iSCSI initiator. Clients could con-
nect their Macintosh via the Ethernet port directly into 3
Terabytes of online Fibre Channel RAID storage, or use 2
Gigabytes of Fibre Channel via the ATTO Celerity FC-
42ES Host Adapter.
