C8R25B Use Case
Accelerated Virtualized Storage for SMB Data Centers
In a mid-market data center running VMware ESXi hosts, IT deploys the HPE MSA arrays equipped with C8R25B-HPE MSA 10Gb Short Range iSCSI SFP+ transceivers to provision 10Gb iSCSI links. This short-reach solution dramatically lowers storage latency for virtual machines, increasing VM density per host while maintaining predictable I/O performance. Benefit: up to 40% faster data access and consistent SLA compliance for business-critical workloads.
Efficient Remote Disaster Recovery Replication
A financial services firm implements synchronous replication between its primary and DR sites over dark-fiber using HPE MSA arrays fitted with C8R25B-HPE 10Gb iSCSI SFP+ modules. This configuration sustains sustained 10Gb throughput for continuous data mirroring without packet loss. Benefit: sub-minute RPO and rapid RTO, ensuring regulatory compliance and uninterrupted service during site failover.
Optimized Media Production and Post-Editing Workflows
A broadcast studio connects high-resolution editing workstations to centralized HPE MSA storage using the C8R25B-HPE 10Gb Short Range iSCSI SFP+ transceivers over multimode fiber. Editors stream 4K/8K video assets in real time with negligible buffering. Benefit: up to 50% reduction in media ingest and render times, accelerating project delivery and maximizing creative throughput.
