Utilizing Advanced Intelligent Tape (AIT) technology, Sony brings to market a new line of OEM tape libraries, setting new standards for reliability, capacity, and performance in today's demanding storage environments.

Sony AIT libraries utilize the latest in AIT tape drive technology for a combination of high performance and reliability

With up to 16 cartridge storage capacity and configurations with 1 or 2 drives, the Sony AIT tape libraries offer scalable storage solutions.

A compact form factor, 2U height, offering both desktop and rack mount configurations, and lower power consumption make or easy integration into most storage environments.

Sony AIT tape libraries incorporate Memory-In-Cassette (MIC) technology to enhance data access speed, creating a perfect solution for either archiving or near line storage.

We all know back-up and disaster recovery are important concerns; and when your back-up needs were small, standalone tape drives may have done the job. But now your needs have grown, direct attached tape drives no longer meet your capacity, performance, or reliability requirements, and your IT resources are overwhelmed managing all your individual drives and scattered pieces of media. To further challenge you, the government says you now may be required to back-up and archive even more data than ever before.

By consolidating with Sony's StorStation AIT automation solutions, you can make things manageable again. Sony's family of LIB-D81 StorStation AIT autoloaders can be less expensive than even single drives from competitive formats while offering a range of capacities and performance levels to facilitate your first step into automation. The LIB-D81 StorStation autoloaders come in a convenient and easy to use desktop configuration, which is perfect for backing up critical data for your workgroup, department, or small to medium sized business.

Several DGS-3627 switches may be physically stacked, using low-cost CX4 10 Gigabit copper modules. In this configuration, one or two 10-Gigabit uplinks may be created, depending on whether the linear or fault-tolerant ring stacking1 is implemented. Up to 12 switches can be stacked in this way.

Using the low-cost coaxial cable as the medium to stack switches together provides not only high-bandwidth stacking but also the flexibility to add 10-Gigabit uplinks strictly as needed. The three open slots can also be used for optional 10-Gigabit XFP fiber uplinks to servers or a backbone connection.

With D-Link Single IP Management (SIM) support, you can easily add up to 32 switch units -regardless of the model- in a virtual stack in addition to your physical stack. Multiple switches can be configured, monitored and maintained from any workstation running a Web browser via one single IP address. The stack is managed as a single object, as all stacked units are identified by a single IP address. A simple yet powerful web-based interface allows you to perform most management and configuration tasks.

A complete set of security features is provided, which includes L2/L3/L4 multi-layer Access Control Lists (ACLs) and 802.1X user authentication via TACACS+ and RADIUS servers. The switch also offers suppression capabilities and Layer3 IPv4/v6 static routing to increase network performance and security. In addition, when implemented in conjunction with a D-Link NetDefend firewall, this switch as a stand-alone or in a stack, is able to automatically quarantine any host displaying abnormal behaviour. Finally, D-Link's ZoneDefense, provides proactive network security by preventing viruses from spreading through the network and thwarting harmful network attacks.

The DGS-3627 switch provides VLAN support including GARP/GVRP and 802.1Q to enhance network security and performance. The switch implements a robust set of multi-layer (L2, L3, L4) QoS/CoS features to ensure that critical network services like VoIP, ERP, Intranet and video conference are prioritised. Bandwidth control allows administrators to set traffic limits on each port, ensuring a committed level of service for end users. For advanced applications, per-flow bandwidth control allows easy fine-tuning of service types based on specific IP addresses or protocols. In addition, a unique feature, D-Link Safeguard Engine, allows administrators to configure thresholds that limit the impact of packet flooding typically caused by virus/worm outbreaks. This increases the switch's reliability, serviceability and availability.

Just a short throw to the perfect image. The new revolutionary WT610 short throw projector from NEC has the world's shortest throwing distance so that the presenter and audience can move about freely in front of the screen without obstructing the image. The WT610 can be positioned right up against the wall in places where space is limited or in informal situations where people are not sitting while watching the presentation, for example, exhibitions, live events, press launches etc.

The WT610 is the perfect fit for tight cubical office spaces, classrooms and retail environments where there is limited space and obstacles to the view. Business meeting rooms have become smaller and while normal front projectors require a throw distance of feet, the WT610 can achieve up to an 80" screen display in less than 18 inches. In retail settings, shelf space is at a premium and the WT610 with its short throw distance, vivid graphics and video display can enhance customer interaction without reducing the merchandising display area. In a classroom environment, the projector can be moved to the front of the class giving the teacher more freedom to interact with the students without worrying about stepping in front of the projected image.
