NEXIO® NXS3100 Series
SBOD Storage Arrays
The NEXIO® NXS3100 series of storage arrays add a high-performance switched bunch of drives (SBOD) storage system option to the NEXIO storage area network (SAN). NEXIO SBOD storage systems support 15,000-RPM drives for 4 Gb/s Fibre Channel performance — translating to as much as 16,000 Mb/s of bandwidth per single NEXIO storage domain.
The NXS3100 series features a 3RU chassis with eight 4 Gb/s-capable Fibre Channel ports on the rear, and supports the NEXIO Direct Connect (up to eight nodes), switched Fibre Channel (up to 13 nodes) and media host (up to 100+ nodes) SAN architectures. The NXS3100 chassis will accommodate up to 16 15,000-RPM Fibre Channel drives. It is offered in eight- and 16-drive configurations, with a choice of 300 or 600 GB drives. Two hot-swappable power supplies are included.
Features
- Up to 9135 Mb/s of bandwidth per SAN (up to 16,000 Mb/s using Intrinsic Mirroring™ with dual SANs)
- 4 Gb/s (using 15,000-RPM drives) Fibre Channel
- High drive-packing density (16 drives in 3RU)
- Dual power supplies with power factor correction and auto-ranging
- Drive cooling provided by four centrifugal fans
- Fits in standard 19-in. rack
- Operator panel with enclosure ID selection, status indicators and configuration switches
- Fault indicators and audible alarm for power, cooling, system faults, loop speed and hub configuration
- Power supplies, Fibre Channel controllers and drives are hot-swappable for maximum availability
- FCC class A, UL, cUL and CE marks
