The ATTO iPBridge and ATTO FibreBridge
family of products share common configuration
options and functions to provide the most
versatile connectivity options available. Each
product has been engineered to address specific
customer needs. New capabilities are integrated
into products throughout the family as much as
possible, requiring only an upgrade of firmware to
incorporate them into your SAN (Storage Area
Network) or NAS (Network Attached Storage).

The ATTO iPBridge 1550E/D is a cost-effective
way of expanding your existing storage capacity
without sacrificing performance. The ATTO
iPBridge 1550E/D is ideally suited to the SME or
for corporate IT departments seeking to expand
storage requirements with minimal disruption
while making existing SCSI equipment accessible
over an Ethernet network to all network users.
