LSI SAS 6160 SAS Switch


The LSI™ SAS6160 switch significantly extends the capabilities of SAS in direct-
attached storage (DAS) environments by allowing multiple servers to connect to one
or more independent external storage systems. The 6Gb/s SAS switch provides a
low-cost and easy-to-use storage networking option for rack-mount servers and
storage installations in cloud computing, mega data center, small- to medium-size
business, and virtual server environments.

By enabling storage resources to be shared across multiple hosts and managed
through SAS zoning, the LSI SAS switch helps maximize storage utilization while
eliminating islands of storage. It also simplifies storage management, backup, and
upgrades. The SAS switch is designed from the ground up to deliver the connectivity
required to support virtual server environments. It allows organizations to realize the
benefits of virtual machine migration while maintaining the management simplicity of DAS

Key features:

  • Easy installation and integration in a SAS infrastructure
  • Enables direct-attached-storage (DAS) to be scaled as a low-cost storage network
  • 16x 6Gbit/s miniSAS x4 SFF8088 ports
  • 24Gbit/s SAS connections, aggregate bandwidth of 384Gbit/s
  • SAS-/SATA-connectivity of up to 1,000 devices
  • T10 zoning compliant
  • Management via LAN
  • OS independent
  • 1U rackmount form factor with half wide
