SAS3816 Tri-Mode I/O Controller High-port count PCIe 4.0 x8, 16-port SAS/SATA/NVMe IOC featuring Tri-Mode SerDes Technology

Broadcom Tri-Mode SerDes technology enables seamless operation of PCIe, SAS or SATA storage devices in a single drive bay. The introduction of PCIe devices executing NVMe to the existing SAS/SATA infrastructure makes industry standard, hot-pluggable drive bays even more versatile. Whether you’re building external or cloud-based storage systems for high connectivity, or outfitting servers, the SAS3816, 16-port, 12Gb/s Tri-Mode SAS/SATA/PCIe Gen4 IOC provides choices for storage optimization by enhancing direct-attached storage (DAS) solutions.

This high-performance, seventh-generation I/O controller supports T-10 data protection model and optical support, PCIe hot plugging, and up to 2,000 connected devices.

• Capitalize on the wide bandwidth of 16 PCI Express lanes with SAS transfer rates of up to 12Gb/s and SATA rates up to 6Gb/s
• Extend existing end-user investments with DataBolt technology, which provides the benefits of 12Gb/s SAS with existing 6Gb/s drive devices
• Deliver more than one million IOPS
