Nexio Farad™
Nexio Farad™ Scalable, High-Performance, Online Storage
Nexio Farad™ delivers unprecedented levels of bandwidth and storage to support demanding media workflows. This high-performance online storage system is specifically designed for broadcast and production facilities, including news, sports and live-event applications. Nexio Farad provides sharable and scalable storage throughout the content lifecycle, while offering the highest levels of digital asset protection. • Flexible capacity and bandwidth. Allows scaling of storage and bandwidth as your requirements grow and even during on-air operations, without affecting existing media • High availability. Enables continuous broadcast operations, with no performance degradation in the event of multiple and simultaneous failures • Facilitates collaboration. Provides true shared access for fastturnaround editorial environments and shorter time to air • Reduces capital expenditures. Provides economical entry-level storage supporting lower cost environments • Easy to manage. Allows unattended drive rebuilds, supports remote monitoring and diagnostics, and includes an informative graphical user interface (GUI)
Features
• RAID-601 provides high availability, protecting against drive, controller and storage chassis failures, while maintaining system throughput • Nexio RAIDsoft™ striping increases bandwidth and patented Nexio Intrinsic Mirroring™ ensures content availability • Configurable spare drive provisioning provides automatic drive failover and rebuild • Automatic drive rebuilds require no operator action and result in no performance degradation • High drive density with 12 3.5 in. drives (12 TB, 24 TB, or 48 TB storage) in 2RU • Support for Ethernet and Fibre Channel client connections • Redundant, high-performance 8 Gb/s Fibre Channel connections per Nexio Farad core storage sub-system, with redundant RAID controllers • Dual hot-swappable power supplies per enclosure
Product Details High performance with flexible capacity and bandwidth. Allows scaling of storage independently of bandwidth, managing storage costs as requirements grow, without affecting existing media. –– Scale Nexio Farad capacity to more than 1 PB of usable storage and/or 48,000 Mb/s easily, with no disruption to onair operations –– Non-destructive background restriping allows new storage to be added with no performance degradation and keeps current content intact without performing additional backups. High availability. Enables continuous broadcast operations, with no performance degradation in the event of multiple and simultaneous failures.
• On-air scalability to over a petabyte of online shared storage with RAID-601 storage protection • Tens of gigabits per second of assured streaming bandwidth, even during degraded or rebuilding modes North America +1 800 231 9673 • Caribbean and Latin America +1 786 437 1960 Europe and Africa +44 118 964 8200 • Middle East and South Asia +971 4 433 8250 Asia Pacific +852 2776 0628
–– Nexio Farad uses RAID-601, protecting against drive, controller, and storage chassis failures and maintaining system throughput. RAID-601 combines RAID 6, 0 and 1 technology. HarrisBroadcast.com/Playout

Nexio Farad™ –– Nexio RAIDsoft striping increases bandwidth and patented Intrinsic Mirroring ensures content is always available. –– Nexio Farad supports a non-mirrored configuration of up to three enclosures with RAID-60 data protection, for shared storage in workflows where the extra investment for high availability isn’t justified Facilitates collaboration. Provides true, shared, online broadcast storage and eliminates the need for separate storage islands, simplifying workflows.
Easy to manage. Allows unattended drive rebuilds, supports remote monitoring and diagnostics, and includes an informative, web-based graphical user interface (GUI) –– “Spare Drive Provisioning” technology provides a pool of standby media drives that are used for unattended and automatic drive rebuild following a drive failure. –– Replacing a failed drive can be scheduled at a convenient time, without any performance degradation.
–– All media is stored in one place for ingest, production and playout, so there are no time- and money-wasting file transfer tasks to, from or between servers. –– All users have access all the time, without any restrictions, to get their job done. –– Nexio Farad supports high-speed archive and restore interaction with network attached, clustered or tape storage.
