Description:
- Automatic SCSI bus termination.
- Doesn't require a SCSI device ID.
- Features a 10BASE-T Ethernet LAN port and RS-232 serial port for remote management capabilities.
- Push a button to cycle between buses. Make the most of your SCSI hardware investments with the BLACK BOX(R) 2 x 1 SCSI Switch. This software-controllable peripheral switching and failover device gives you a cost-effective way to connect multiple SCSI peripherals to your host devices. The high-performance switch enables you to select and connect three independent SCSI buses in any combination. All SCSI bus data and control signals are switched electronically between the box's three bus ports. And, because the ports are fully bidirectional, you decide where to connect your computers, host adapters, and peripherals! In one possible configuration, two workstations on separate buses can share access to an expensive SCSI peripheral on the third bus. For instance, instead of giving each user a tape drive or drum scanner, or manually plugging and unplugging cables between the two users, you can use the 2 x 1 SCSI Switch to automate switching between the host devices. Or set it up with your host device on one SCSI bus and up to seven SCSI peripherals on each of the other two buses. This way, you can establish simple failover switching to CD-ROM towers, RAID drives, or other SCSI mass-storage hardware. To cycle between the buses, simply press the button on the box's front panel. Internal termination is automatic. Completely transparent to all computers and peripherals on the SCSI bus, the 2 x 1 SCSI Switch doesn't require a SCSI device ID and can be installed anywhere on the bus. Connections for remote management. The switch also features a standard 10BASE-T Ethernet port and, once connected to your LAN, enables switching from any TCP/IP workstation or server on the network. Or control and monitor it remotely via its RS-232 serial port, which is compatible with standard RS-232 modem cables. Use the Windows(R) based management software shipped with the switch to configure its SCSI ports and termination, gather performance statistics, and perform other administrative tasks. And, because the SCSI, LAN, serial, and power cables connect at the switch's rear, the switch is perfect for the desktop. Choose between models that support wide Low-Voltage Differential (LVD)/Single-Ended (SE) SCSI and high-voltage Differential SCSI. The LVD/SE switch detects the type of device you're operating and switches to the LVD or SE SCSI interface automatically. The SW488A (Single-Ended) and SW489A both support Ultra Wide SCSI and are backwards compatible with other SCSI standards. Plus, the SW488A (LVD) supports Ultra160 (Ultra3).
