SAN Commander Fibre Channel Tester

 

SAN Commander is unlike any other product on the market. Never before have product developers had the capability to saturate their products with a maximum load and demonstrate continued operation even under the most extreme conditions. Integrators, VARs, Solution Providers, and SAN Software Vendors now have the ability to saturate SANs and know with certainty if and where performance bottlenecks will occur. SAN Commander puts theory into practice by generating streams of data at nearly 100% of the technology's theoretical maximum. But SAN Commander goes far beyond simply generating data. It can simulate the effect of adding devices into a deployed topology, verify how a device responds to being overloaded, and assist in benchmarking and supporting product claims. It is the ideal solution for scheduled throughput verification and emergency fault isolation. And you get all of this at a price per port unmatched in the industry.

Three powerful tools within a single test port
Add EAGLE software to a SAN Commander port and you have the most versatile wire-speed test solution in the industry. You have the option of purchasing EAGLE licenses on a port basis, adding this capability to only the desired ports. A SAN Commander port with EAGLE software has three powerful capabilities - the ability to perform wire-speed testing, low-level testing, and SANmark qualification.

Portable and configurable to your specific needs
SAN Commander is a compact standalone test system with an intuitive software application. It is available in either a portable desktop configuration ideal for the lab, marketing, or field testing, or in a rack-mount configuration for permanent installation in either the lab or the SAN. Multiple Fibre Channel ports are configurable to 1- or 2-Gbps, supporting point-to-point and arbitrated loop topologies. SAN Commander's comprehensive test capabilities are accessible to multiple users at remote locations on the network via a 10/100 Base-T Ethernet® port. SAN Commander offers a configuration to fit your budget and your needs with the option to add more ports as your storage needs grow.
