The PROMISE SANLink adapter is a groundbreaking, out-of-the-box solution that
revolutionizes how users connect to a Fibre Channel SAN. For the first time, portables
and desktop systems previously unable to connect to a high-speed Fibre Channel SAN
can now do so using Thunderbolt technology.
SANLink provides dual 4Gbps Fibre Channel ports that can be used to connect directly
SANLink provides dual 4Gbps Fibre Channel ports that can be used to connect directly
to an external Fibre Channel storage device or to an Xsan or StorNext network using a
high-speed Thunderbolt I/O port. Each adapter features full-duplex capable FC ports,
that automatically detect connection speed and can each independently operate at
1, 2 or 4Gbps.

Your Thunderbolt Enabled Portable or Desktop on a Fibre Channel SAN? No problem.
PROMISE SANLink is fully compatible with Thunderbolt technology that ships on
every new portable and desktop Mac, including the MacBook Pro, iMac and Mac mini
providing never before seen flexibility for a SAN configuration in the Mac ecosystem.
Qualified for use with Mac OS X, SANLink requires zero software install and simply
works out-of-the-box with full hot-plug capability.

Using Thunderbolt technology, SANLink provides the ability to daisy-chain up to 6
high-speed Thunderbolt enabled devices. Dual Thunderbolt I/O ports enables
SANLink to daisy up to a total of six Thunderbolt devices including products such
as PROMISE Pegasus Thunderbolt RAID storage systems, Apple Thunderbolt Displays
and Mini Display port devices.

Streamlining Workflows for Creative Professionals
SANLink removes storage bottlenecks for portables and desktops that were unable to
connect directly to a Fibre Channel SAN. By using SANLink, editing files in real time
in native uncompressed formats has become a reality, thus removing the need for
costly rendering time due to proxy editing. In addition, access to low-latency, high-
bandwidth storage reduces file load times, allows for instantaneous response time
during timeline scrubbing and reduces the amount of time required for large media
file transfers.
