MODEL: RSI-SAS36EXP

Description


The RSI-SAS36EXP is a 36-port, 3 Gigabit Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) Expander. This expander provides large storage environments the ability to connect multiple targets and initiators through a switched device for scalability and fault tolerant path redundancy to improve reliability. The RSI-SAS36EXP SAS expander is compliant with the ANSI SAS specification and supports both SAS and SATA I/II devices. SAS benefits include improved performance, simplified cabling with the miniSAS connectors (iPass), and lower power requirements. 

Features


  • 36 fully independent SAS and SATA ports
  • Supports SSP, SMP, and STP target and initiator
  • Supports SATA
  • Supports multiple data rates and auto negotiation
  • 1.5G and 3.0Gb/s SAS and SATA
  • Provide low latency connection router with crossbar module to efficiently create and maintain connections
  • SATA/SAS HDD spin up sequencing per Phy basis
  • LEDs indicate SAS Port Activity
  • Allows concurrent connections to SAS or SATA targets
  • Programmable a scalable interface that supports up to 1024 SAS addresses
  • Supports wide and narrow port configurations
  • Phy-based zoning for system security: allows re-use of routing table resources across all phys
  • Includes high performance active cooling higher system reliablity
  • Port independent auto negotiation
  • Ports are non denominational for initiator or target connect
  • EPP port for management
  • Support Direct, Subtractive decode, and Table routing

Applications


  • The RSI-SAS36EXP can be used to attach initiators to SAS/SATA devices in SAS Edge/Fanout topologies to increase the number of accessible devices, or in fault tolerant path redundancy topologies to improve system
  • 1U rack mount server
  • Storage subsystem: RAID, JBOD
