Hewlett Packard Enterprise StorageWorks EVA4000 FCIP Distance Gateway Kit

The HP StorageWorks IP Distance Gateway provides SAN over WAN connectivity for protecting and replicating data between HP EVA systems. By connecting islands of SANs over WANs, the IP Distance Gateway enables continuous access replication, both asynchronous and synchronous, SAN device sharing, data migration and other long distance data services. At the core of providing long distance data services is the ability to copy, move and replicate data, both locally and over long distances, however, SANs have limited distance capabilities (35km) and IT managers need to share, protect and move data over greater distances than 35km. An alternative to Routers and switches, the IP Distance Gateway uses the FCIP (Fibre Channel Internet Protocol) standard to extend SAN connectivity.<br /><br /><span style="font-size: larger; font-weight: bold;">Features</span>
