What Is This Tool?
This converter transforms data transfer measurements from SCSI (Sync), a synchronous storage protocol mode, into T2 (signal), a legacy telecommunications digital carrier rate, aiding in comparisons between storage and telecom capacities.
How to Use This Tool?
-
Enter the value in SCSI (Sync) to be converted
-
Select SCSI (Sync) as the source unit
-
Choose T2 (signal) as the target unit
-
Click convert to see the equivalent value
-
Review the result and use it for your data transfer rate comparisons

Common Use Cases
-
Assessing high-throughput server and workstation storage driver rates in SCSI terms
-
Translating storage throughput for legacy telecommunication circuit comparisons
-
Comparing RAID controller data rates with T2 telecom trunk capacities
-
Managing legacy leased line performance in telephony and network infrastructure
-
Supporting historic analysis of data transfer in integrated storage and telecom systems
Tips & Best Practices
-
Use this tool primarily for legacy systems or historical data rate analysis
-
Understand that SCSI (Sync) rates depend on negotiated settings and may vary
-
Acknowledge that T2 (signal) rates represent fixed nominal telecommunication capacities
-
Cross-check conversions when applied to current, non-legacy environments
-
Utilize example conversions to verify the tool’s output for your input values
Limitations
-
SCSI (Sync) data rates vary based on negotiated parameters and may not always match the fixed T2 rate
-
Both units are linked to legacy technologies and have limited use in modern systems
-
Direct conversions do not guarantee real-time throughput equivalence
-
The converter is best suited for historic analysis or maintaining older infrastructure
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What does SCSI (Sync) measure?
-
SCSI (Sync) refers to a synchronous transfer mode in the SCSI protocol, describing data transfer rates based on negotiated timing between devices.
-
What is T2 (signal) used for?
-
T2 (signal) is a legacy digital carrier level used in North American telecommunications to provide medium-capacity leased lines and trunking between switches.
-
Why convert between SCSI (Sync) and T2 (signal)?
-
Conversion helps compare data rates between storage protocols and telecom carrier capacities, especially when dealing with legacy systems.
Key Terminology
-
SCSI (Sync)
-
A synchronous transfer mode in the SCSI protocol enabling data transfer synchronized with a negotiated clock for higher throughput.
-
T2 (signal)
-
A legacy digital carrier level in North American telecommunications transmitting at a nominal rate by multiplexing multiple PCM channels.
-
Data Transfer Rate
-
The speed at which data is transmitted, often expressed in bytes or bits per second.
