Key Features

  • Dual independent SCSI buses for parallel operation
  • Differential signaling reduces interference and extends cable length up to 25 meters per channel
  • Supports SCSI-2 Fast Wide (16-bit) at speeds up to 20 MB/s per bus
  • Plug-and-play PCI interface with auto-configuration support in SunOS, Solaris and major Linux distributions
  • Low power consumption and heat generation for dense server racks
  • Compatible with standard SCSI devices including disks, tape drives, scanners and CD/DVD units

Technical Specifications

  • Manufacturer: Sun Microsystems
  • Model/Part Number: X6541A
  • Bus Interface: 32-bit PCI, 33 MHz
  • SCSI Standard: SCSI-2 Fast Wide (16-bit)
  • Maximum Transfer Rate: 20 MB/s per channel
  • Cable Length: Up to 25 meters (differential) per bus
  • Connector Type: Two DB25 male connectors, one per channel
  • Operating Temperature: 0 to 55 degrees C
  • Power Requirement: 5 V and 3.3 V from PCI slot

Typical Applications

  • Enterprise data servers requiring high throughput storage arrays
  • Backup and archival systems using tape libraries or external disk enclosures
  • Scientific and engineering workstations that need simultaneous access to multiple SCSI devices
  • Legacy system upgrades where modern SAS solutions are not feasible
  • Network attached storage (NAS) appliances built on Sun hardware platforms

This adapter combines robust construction with flexible connectivity, making it an ideal choice for organizations seeking dependable storage performance without the complexity of newer protocols.
