ATTO Technology FibreBridge 4500 Installation and Operation Manual
2.1 ATTO FibreBridge 4500C characteristics
The ATTO FibreBridge 4500C is a Fibre Channel to SCSI bridge with a CPCI interface for high
throughput enterprise environments designed for mission-critical applications.
The FibreBridge 4500C is a single embedded PCB
with CPCI interface.

➔
Three independent SC optical connectors
SCSI ports
The four VHDCI SCSI ports on the FibreBridge
4500C connect storage devices into the Fibre Channel
Storage Area Network (SAN). Each port is totally
independent from the others.
A FibreBridge 4500C can be ordered with either of the
following SCSI ports:
Ultra 2 (LVD) SCSI
80 MB/sec. max per bus,
downward compatible with all forms of single-ended
SCSI
High Voltage Differential (HVD) Ultra SCSI
40
MB/sec. max per bus
Ethernet port
The 10/100 Base T Ethernet port supports FTP,
SNMP- and Telnet-based monitoring and
management through a command line interface, menu
system or graphical interface (ATTO BridgeTools).
