Overview
There are a number of diff erent protocols used in the storage industry. In a storage test lab environment, fl exibility and
multi-protocol support is paramount to effi cient operation. When dealing with the SAS/SATA protocol, cable length
restraints and connector reliability compromise effi ciency even further.
MRV’s physical layer switch, the Media Cross Connect (MCC), addresses storage lab effi ciency by providing a wire-once
solution with support for Fibre Channel, iSCSI, FCoE, and now SAS/SATA in one system.
SAS/SATA Modules Provide a Complete Wire-Once Solution
Using the MCC in a storage test lab enables lab administrators to physically connect storage equipment of various types
and protocols providing greater fl exibility and improved effi ciency.
The MCC is initially cabled to all lab devices then software commands are used to confi gure and store test topologies
to be recalled as needed. Test time and confi guration errors are reduced, repeatability of tests like disaster or failover
simulation is simplifi ed, and expensive test equipment can be shared.
MRV developed a small form-factor pluggable (SFP) device specifi cally to support Serial Attached SCSI (SAS)/Serial ATA
(SATA) to be used with the MCC interface blade. The SAS/SATA SFP is available in two models: the Host SFP connects to
the initiator and the Drive SFP connects to the target.
The blade architecture of the MCC allows mixing diff erent types of blades in a single system. MRV’s SAS/SATA SFP
provides the fl exibility to support diff erent protocols within the same blade and allows the MCC to be tailored to meet
the specifi c needs of the testing environment.
