ATTO Technology Inc. FibreBridge Installation and Operation Manual
 1.0  ATTO FibreBridge provides storage options
The ATTO FibreBridge
 family of products provides Fibre Channel-to-SCSI bridges as embeddable 
boards, stand alone enclosures that can be fitted for rack mount integration, or desktop units. 
Fibre Channel is a serial communications 
technology designed to transfer large amounts of 
data between a variety of hardware systems over 
long distances. It is a key technology for 
applications that require shared, high bandwidth 
access to storage.
Fibre Channel provides a logical point-to-point 
serial channel for the transfer of data between a 
buffer at a source device and a buffer at a 
destination device. It moves buffer contents from 
one port to another, without regard to the format 
or meaning of the data, so different upper level 
protocols are able to run over Fibre Channel 
hardware.
All ATTO FibreBridge models can be used in a 
SAN (Storage Area Network) to connect a variety 
of Fibre Channel and SCSI devices. A SAN is a 
shared storage architecture connecting computers 
and storage devices for online data access. Each 
connected system can directly access any attached 
storage device. 
The ATTO FibreBridge provides the interface 
between SCSI and Fibre Channel resources in 
SANs. Possible configurations depend upon your 
current hardware.
ATTO FibreBridge 2370E features, benefits
The ATTO FibreBridge 2370E is a Fibre 
Channel-to-SCSI bridge that offers a high-
performance architecture supporting next-
generation storage media. The FibreBridge 
2370E allows users with SCSI storage to add 
Fibre Channel connectivity, enabling SAN 
connectivity for the storage system. With 
industry-leading support for 4-Gigabit Fibre 
Channel and Ultra320 SCSI, the FibreBridge 
2370E provides the throughput required by 
advanced storage media in an embeddable 
form factor for easy integration into SCSI 
devices.
