DC-390U3W

Ultra 160 SCSI Host Adapter
For optimizing performance up to 160MB/sec data transfer rate.

Combining a 64-bit PCI interface with one Ultra 160 SCSI channel.?It delivers the maximum 160MB/s data transfer rate and allows connecting Ultra 160 SCSI(LVD), legacy hard disk drive, and popular narrow SCSI devices.?It is tailed to the needs of small multi-user work group servers and workstation power user.

Tekram makes it easy for you to migrate to the latest technology with a full family of Ultra 160 SCSI host adapters, DC-390U3D/W series. The DC-390U3D is a PCI dual channel Ultra 160 SCSI host adapter, supporting the combined data rate up to 320MB/s and 30 devices maximum. The DC-390U3W is a PCI Ultra 160 SCSI host adapter, supporting up to 160MB/s and 15 devices maximum.

Tekram's DC-390U3D/W series features Ultra160 SCSI (LVD) technology, delivering twice the speed of Ultra 2 SCSI. Maximum data transfer rate is up to 160MB/s. To ensure data integrity and reliability, the DC-390U3D/W series includes two new features CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Checking) and Domain Validation. CRC protects data from being lost in the event of a poor connection or during hot-swap of a new drive into a system. Domain Validation helps to ensure that data transfer rates happen at the highest possible rate. The DC-390U3D/W series supports cable length up to 12 meters for maximum configuration flexibility. Besides connecting for Ultra 160 hard drives, the DC-390U3D/W series supports popular narrow SCSI devices such as CD-R/W, CD-ROM, MO, Scanner, Tape, and etc.

Features:

• Cyclical redundancy checking (CRC): protects data from being lost in the event of a poor connection or during hot-swap of a new drive into a system. Core feature of Ultra160 SCSI devices.
• Domain validation: helps to ensure that data transfer rates happen at the highest possible rate. If the highest rate is not possible, domain validation allows the device to ship to a lower data transfer speed before data transfer begins. Core feature of Ultra160 SCSI devices.
• Double edge clocking: allows SCSI to continue doubling performance. Current SCSI devices can operate up to 160 Megabytes/second while future products based on Ultra320 and Ultra640 SCSI devices will operate up to 320 and 640 Megabytes/second, respectively. Core feature of Ultra160 SCSI devices.
