| Open Source Storage's New Products Open Source Storage has announced two new and innovative products designed to significantly improve datacenter rack efficiency. OSS' new 96-port vertical patch panel and matching vertical panel switch - the world's first such products to run vertically on a standard 19" datacenter rack cabinet significantly increase panel connectivity and capacity while saving precious horizontal rack space for servers, storage and other networking equipment. Open Source Storage's two new patent-pending products are Cat-6 10/100, Gigabit Ethernet and 10 Gigabit Ethernet cable compliant. The patch panel, which contains a generous 96 RJ-45 cable ports, has been optimized for use in any standard rack, and can be mounted internally or externally. The panel also meets ANSI and IEEE standards for High Performance Computing connectivity. OSS' vertical panel switch is comprised of an active 96-port, non-blocking Layer 4 through 7 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet routing switch, configured into a thin vertical form factor. The panel switch, as well as the patch panel, facilitate airflow to cabinet componentry; both are fully field tested. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Networking News :: home page |
