What Is This Tool?
This converter allows you to translate data transfer rates from SCSI (Fast Ultra), a parallel signalling mode used in high-speed server storage, to ISDN (dual channel), which bonds two ISDN B channels to provide combined telecommunication data throughput.
How to Use This Tool?
-
Enter the value in SCSI (Fast Ultra) units you wish to convert
-
Select SCSI (Fast Ultra) as the source unit
-
Choose ISDN (dual channel) as the target unit
-
Click convert to get the equivalent data transfer rate in ISDN (dual channel)
Key Features
-
Convert data transfer values between SCSI (Fast Ultra) and ISDN (dual channel) units
-
Simple, browser-based interface requiring no installation
-
Provides quick comparison to support network and infrastructure planning
-
Supports conversion based on standard rates for accurate benchmarking
Examples
-
1 SCSI (Fast Ultra) equals 1250 ISDN (dual channel)
-
2 SCSI (Fast Ultra) equal 2500 ISDN (dual channel)
Common Use Cases
-
Planning network and backup strategies by comparing server storage throughput to telecommunication channels
-
IT infrastructure assessment involving legacy and modern data transfer technologies
-
Managing remote LAN access and backup links that utilize ISDN dual channel configurations
Tips & Best Practices
-
Use the converter to estimate and compare data transfer capabilities across different technologies
-
Remember the conversion is approximate and suited for performance comparison rather than precise scientific calculation
-
Consider hardware variations that can influence the actual SCSI (Fast Ultra) transfer speeds when planning
Limitations
-
ISDN (dual channel) is not an SI unit and represents a telecommunication configuration, so conversions are approximate
-
SCSI (Fast Ultra) speeds vary by hardware and implementation, affecting precise data transfer equivalencies
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What does SCSI (Fast Ultra) refer to?
-
SCSI (Fast Ultra) combines Fast and Ultra extensions in parallel SCSI signalling to increase device-to-host data throughput while remaining compatible with the standard command set.
-
What is ISDN (dual channel)?
-
ISDN (dual channel) uses both 64 kbit/s B channels of the ISDN Basic Rate Interface in parallel to provide a combined data throughput of approximately 128 kbit/s.
-
Why convert between SCSI (Fast Ultra) and ISDN (dual channel)?
-
This conversion helps understand and compare data transfer rates between high-speed server storage interfaces and telecommunication channels for efficient network planning.
Key Terminology
-
SCSI (Fast Ultra)
-
A parallel SCSI signalling mode combining Fast and Ultra extensions to increase throughput and reduce latency in device-to-host data transfer.
-
ISDN (dual channel)
-
A telecommunication data transfer configuration using both 64 kbit/s B channels of ISDN Basic Rate Interface in parallel for about 128 kbit/s throughput.
