FastFrame™ Network and Storage Interface Cards
The ATTO family of 10GbE Network and Storage Interface Cards are available in single-, dual-
and quad-port congurations and can be used anywhere in your infrastructure, including
workstations, storage, servers and data center racked servers. Mac®, Windows®, VMware®
and Linux® driver support ensure that FastFrame cards are suitable for any application.
As a pioneer in iSCSI, ATTO’s FastFrame family has been designed for the more rigorous
data transfer and reliability standards required for storage interconnect. The exibility
of the FastFrame product line extends architecture options as they are available in
both optical and 10GBASE-T congurations. All optical cards also feature Direct Attach
Copper (DAC) support, while 10GBASE-T cards work with standard Cat6a cabling.
• Leveraging ATTO’s exclusive Advanced Data Streaming (ADS™) Technology, FastFrame provides
high-bandwidth and managed latency for high-performance, enterprise-level iSCSI storage as
well as standard 10GbE network infrastructures
• Data Center Bridging support ensures
lossless Ethernet for applications where
guaranteed data delivery rates are required
• FastFrame cards are up to 30% more ecient in
their power consumption, drastically reducing
operating costs in data centers. Low power
consumption expands system performance
resources to extend processing capabilities
