The PROMISE SANLink2 is a groundbreaking, out-of-the-box solution that revolutionizes how users connect to a Fiber Channel SAN. Portable and desktop systems previously unable to connect to a high-speed Fiber Channel SAN can now do so using Thunderbolt 2 technology. SANLink2 provides dual Fiber Channel ports that can be used to connect directly to an external Fiber Channel storage device or to a storage area network (SAN) using a high-speed Thunderbolt 2 I/O port. Each bridge features full-duplex capable FC ports that automatically detect connection speeds and can each independently operate.

• Twenty gigabits per second
• High-speed connectivity meets the Mac Pro
• Triumph the 4K workflow
• Streamline the creative process

• Twenty gigabits per second
  SANLink2 continues the groundbreaking legacy of its predecessor by using Intel's revolutionary Thunderbolt 2 connectivity to bridge together desktop and portable systems directly to a high-speed fiber Channel SAN.
• High-speed connectivity meets the Mac Pro
  The future of desktop computing meets high-speed fiber Channel SAN connectivity with the powerful new Mac Pro and SANLink2. And now, a Mac Pro or MacBook Pro can also directly connect to 10Gb Ethernet into the network. Blend two of the world's most advanced technologies together to create the perfect multimedia work environment where system performance transcends into something of artistic brilliance.
• Triumph the 4K workflow
  Whenever high-speed capabilities are placed into the equation, everything changes. With SANLink2, all storage bottlenecks for desktop and portable computing systems are immediately alleviated through the introduction of fiber Channel or 10GbE connectivity into the work process. 4K (Ultra HD) environments consisting of bandwidth-hogging post-production and broadcasting operations now become seamless workflows where downtime ceases to exist.
• Streamline the creative process
  Real-time editing of multimedia files in their native, uncompressed formats has always been a challenge for creative professionals. With SANLink2 however, the need for costly rendering time due to proxy editing is eliminated. Experience the ability to access low-latency, high-bandwidth storage and discover reduced file loading periods, instantaneous response times during timeline scrubbing, and drastically faster large media file transfers.
