CUC's OmniSAN enables multiple users to share access to common data files in workgroups requiring heavy bandwidth. With OmniSAN film and video editors, digital artists, and corporate users can simultaneously access a common pool of data files such as video clips, databases, satellite imagery, medical archives, or CAD files - as easily and transparently as if the content was stored on their local hard drive. OmniSAN is the perfect complement to an Avid or Mac Final Cut Pro video-editing workstation, providing the fast, consistent performance required for collaborative video pre/post production. OmniSAN delivers enough bandwidth for working in high-definition (HD) video or supporting multiple streams of uncompressed standard-definition (SD) video with real-time effects. A single 10.5TB OmniSAN configuration holds nearly 25 hours of protected RAID 5 footage, even editing uncompressed HD1080i. An OmniSAN bundle includes everything you need to add a high-performance, shared fibre-channel SAN storage solution to your existing environment including single or dual-port fibre-channel adaptors, rack-mounted RAID array(s), fibre-channel cables and SAN metadata management software license(s).

The OmniStor/FC Series is a family of high-performance hybrid Serial ATA storage subsystems that integrates SATA technologies with 4Gbit fibre-channel interface connectivity. Specifically designed to address the challenges of high-impact/high volume storage requirements, the OmniStor/FC Series offer a new level of superior application performance that raises the bar in reliability, functionality and affordability. Dual 4Gb SFP Fibre ports, coupled with 64-bit RAID architecture to provide performance, increased reliability and functionality, make the OmniStor/FC Series an ideal solution for professional broadcast storage applications including media and asset management libraries, Graphics, News, Production, Web streaming and more. OmniSTOR/IS iSCSI-based versions are also available.
