(Houston, TX, September 21, 2006)
-- BAE Systems has conducted and successfully completed a series
of flight tests using VMETRO's SANbric Rugged Storage System. The
SANbric provides storage for high speed data recording, archival,
and playback analysis of flight test data acquired during deployment
of an imaging system.
During the tests, the SANbric storage module and shock isolation
unit were mounted in an imaging system pod in the pallet bay of
the aircraft.
The SANbric Fibre Channel Storage
Area Network subsystem demonstrates VMETRO's innovative approach
to deploying high-speed, streaming data recording applications
in all environments. The SANbric removable storage module provides
1.8TB of storage capacity in no more than 4U or 7" of shelf
space. Utilizing a shock isolation frame, the SANbric is designed
to tolerate the shock, vibration, altitude and temperatures associated
with flight test conditions.
"The design of the SANbric, by
optimizing size, weight and power constraints, is ideally suited
for UAV and other airborne applications. Successful flight testing
of the SANbric proves VMETRO's ability to deploy storage and recording
solutions in the most demanding mission critical environments." Says
Tom Bohman, Vice President of Business Development at VMETRO, Inc.
