designed and engineered to meet the architecture set
I
4X and 12X InfiniBand Jackscrew Receptacle
forth by the T10 SCSI specification. The standard
(Series 91803)
specifies a high-speed, point-to-point technology,
initially designed to operate at speeds up to 3 Gbps,
with a roadmap to operate at 12 Gbps. Customer
protocol requirements determine which assembly is
used, as both designs are identical.
With storage requirements escalating and becoming
more complex, factors such as larger capacity, greater
density, security, scalability and accessibility are more
critical than ever. Enterprise solutions are recognizing
increasing pressure for substantial capacity,
performance, lower failure rates and greater choice of
components. SAS and SATA I/O solutions meet these
demands while providing the highest performance
available.
Molex is an active member of the SCSI and SATA trade
associations. LaneLink 4X assemblies have been
accepted by multiple standards groups, or Multi-Source
Agreement (MSA) groups, including the T10 SCSI
specification, SAS, SATA I/O, 4X and 12X InfiniBand*,
10 Gigabit Ethernet and 10 Gigabit Fibre Channel.
