SCSI Tape & SCSI HDD replacement

Using the PV Flash disk and tape products in telco Switching and transport applications

TELCO - Telecom Hardware with partner have developed a Solid Disk drive, magneto Optic (MO) and tape drive with emulation capability aimed at ageing drives in legacy telco Systems.

This is a SCSI tape or SCSI disk drive with no moving parts in 1 3.5 inch from factor.

it can be configured with either a SCSI or Pertec Interface for a connection to:

•   Siemens EWSD  (MTD)- HP88781AA SCSI or HP Pertec drives depending on the age of the EWSD rack.Duplex  disks MD0 & MD1
     duplex disk drives –can be replaced with SCSICFdisks. Also the HP2940A for EWSD Switching V.9
•   Fujitsu Fetex 150-    Fujitsu SCSI drive emulation
•   NEC NEAX 61E and Sigma – FlashTape emulating a SCSI DAT and other drives.
•   ERICSSON AXE10 SCSI drives
•   TELEBRAS TROPICO   SCSI tape drives
•   NORTEL DMS10   SCSI disk & tape emulation
•   STROMBERG-CARLESON DCO – FlashTape emulating a Sony SDT-
    11000 SCSI DAT drive.
•   NTT - SCSI disk & tape emulation.

Data is stored on an industry standard Compact Flash (CF) card, which can be easily removed, and treated as a replacement for the tape cartridge.
The CF data then copied to a Windows PC for backup purposes.
SCSI 2 transfer rates are (up to) 10 Mbytes/sec, and disk capacities only limited by current CF cards (up to 32 GB as of 2008)

 The Unit is available in a number of form factors, including desktop enclosures

FlashTape  and can be configured to replace those hard-to-find SCSI tape drives for legacy systems.
Such drives include 9-track, 3480/3490, QIC, 8mm, DAT drives compatible with all the Telcoms platforms,
or DLT drives. In these older systems the continual tape
repositioning within the drive (shoe-shining), shortens the life of the mechanics of the drive,
and also leads to constant clogging of the tape head gaps from tape debris.
The FlashTape overcomes this issue as it has no moving parts.
