AMCC’s award winning Multi-lane design enables highly reliable and streamlined enterprise-class SAS and SATA storage solutions by greatly reducing the number of cables needed to connect controllers, backplanes, and standard SAS/SATA drives.
The Multi-lane SATA cable/connection system is fast, secure, simple, and clutter free. It combines the RAID controller’s multiple SAS/SATA ports into single locked connections. Multiple 3Gb/s lanes of SAS/SATA traffic travel through just one cable from the RAID controller to the system backplane or to multiple hard drives with a breakout cable.
