iSR6142
SAN over WAN Connectivity
Features
Optimizes SAN over WAN transfer to improve 
 
performance and reduces costs.  SmartWrite™ 
helps improve SAN over WAN performance by 
reducing the latency of WAN transfers. The iSR6142 
increases productivity by optimizing data transfers, 
sharing devices, and replicating data.
Increases ROI by enabling SANs to grow and scale 
 
independently. Many other SAN extension solutions 
merge SAN fabrics, which limits the number of SAN 
switches and devices. The iSR6142 removes the 
limitations of a single name service.
Easy to use and own, with advanced install and 
 
configuration wizards that allow set up in less than 
15 minutes. The iSR6142 is very power efficient, 
using only 48W, and helps reduce power and 
cooling versus competitive products
Improves data protection. The iSR6142, with 
 
Smart Write and FCIP support, has been tested 
and certified with leading replication and data 
management applications from EMC, HDS, 
Symantec/Veritas, IBM, Legato, HP, NetApp, and 
many more.
Benefits
QLogic’s iSR6142 multi-protocol router provides 
 
low-cost bridging and routing services that connect 
SAN islands across the enterprise. This enables 
IT managers to improve the performance and 
lower the cost of data protection, replication, SAN 
extension and disaster recovery.  
The iSR6142 provides SAN connectivity over WANs 
 
by routing Fibre Channel over standard Ethernet, 
expanding and bridging SANs around the globe.
SAN Over WAN Replication and Data Migration. 
The iSR6142 provides SAN 
over WAN connection for data replication, migration, and disaster recovery.  
The  iSR6142  features  SmartWrite,  QLogic’s  patent-pending  technology 
for accelerating replication over iSCSI, based on QLogic’s unique Layer 3 
SCSI routing capabilities.  SmartWrite optimizes key data management and 
migration operations by increasing the amount of data within a packet and 
by reducing the total transfer time across the WAN.  The iSR6142 sets a new 
price performance mark in the industry for SAN over WAN connection. 
Key Advantages of the iSR6142
:
Lower WAN costs with SmartWrite
 
Improved ROI by sharing SAN resources globally
 
Improved data transfer performance
 
Leading Applications for the iSR6142:
Disaster recovery for business continuance
 
Data migration for applications
 
Replication of data for backup
 
Shared SAN devices to improve utilization
 
Connected SAN islands over WANS and LANs
 
SAN  Bridging  for  Improving  SAN  Utilization  and  ROI.
 The  iSR6142  is  the 
ideal tool to expand the reach and connectivity of SANs by bridging SAN 
fabrics. It enables sharing SAN devices independently across SAN fabrics. 
By providing true SAN independence, the iSR6142 improves SAN scalability.  
The  iSR6142  offers  unparalleled  ease  of  integration,  based  on  the  same 
proven QLogic ASIC technology that powers over 50 million storage products 
sold by leading storage vendors.  IT managers can now connect SAN devices 
across any vendor’s SAN infrastructure, improving utilization and SAN ROI.
