The ATTO XstreamCORE 8200T is a purpose-built, hardware-accelerated protocol bridge that connects SAS tape and optical storage devices to high-speed Ethernet networks using iSCSI or iSER protocols.
Designed specifically for tape storage environments, it enables organizations to remotely access, share, and manage tape libraries and drives with the performance and reliability required for enterprise data protection and archival workflows.
With support for up to 16 SAS tape drives per bridge and dual 40Gb Ethernet ports, the 8200T delivers exceptional throughput and ultra-low latency, making it ideal for large-scale backup, disaster recovery, and long-term retention solutions.
The 8200T model is engineered exclusively for tape and optical devices, ensuring compatibility and performance tailored to the unique requirements of sequential storage media.
This specialization allows for streamlined integration into tape-centric environments, supporting leading tape libraries and drives.
Leveraging ATTO’s xCORE Acceleration Technology, the 8200T provides deterministic, hardware-accelerated protocol conversion between SAS and Ethernet, eliminating bottlenecks and maximizing data transfer rates.
With up to 6GB/s sustained throughput and 1.1 million 4K IOPS per bridge, it meets the demands of modern enterprise tape workflows.
The bridge adds less than two microseconds of latency, preserving the performance characteristics of direct-attached storage while enabling remote connectivity.
ATTO’s Data Mover technology offloads up to 5.2GB/s of data movement from host resources, freeing up CPU, memory, and network bandwidth for other critical tasks.
Comprehensive management is provided through XstreamVIEW Storage Manager, as well as support for industry-standard DMTF Redfish and SNIA Swordfish APIs.
SNMP and MIB support further enhance monitoring and integration into enterprise management frameworks.
The 8200T’s 1U rackmount form factor, dual hot-swappable power supplies, and robust connectivity options make it suitable for data centers, remote sites, and disaster recovery locations.
It enables storage disaggregation, shared access, and remote tape workflows across up to a 30-mile radius, supporting both centralized and distributed architectures.
With redundant, hot-swappable power supplies and no batteries required, the 8200T is built for continuous operation and minimal maintenance.
Standard and extended warranty options provide peace of mind for mission-critical deployments.
