The need to refresh old SAN

Legacy infrastructure can limit performance gains from next-generation technologies and leave you exposed to cybersecurity vulnerabilities. Simply adding faster switching technology is not enough. Your SAN needs to be able to act autonomously to maintain optimal conditions. Investing to upgrade now will pay dividends for many years to come.

Gen 7 is fully flexible so you can get the most out of your existing infrastructure by easing your migration to new technology while running multiple generations of storage technologies without sacrificing performance. It offers 64G connectivity for an instant performance boost for data-intensive applications while also supporting 8G, 16G, and 32G connectivity for legacy devices.

Upgrade today to realise your infrastructure’s full capabilities.
