MBRA2-16T-IFXR (BECOMING DEPRECATED)
Description
Rincon Research Corporation’s (RRC) MountainBrik RAID and Acquisition (MBRA), 2nd Generation, 16 TByte, with IFXR (MBRA2-16T-IFXR) system, is becoming deprecated. It is a portable, high-speed RAID storage solution with our IFXR signal acquisition hardware for IF signals. A 2U rack-mount option is available (MBRA2-16T-IFXR-2U-01).
Recordings can be done in single shot or in looped mode. In looped mode, new data overwrites older data for indefinite recording duration. The removable 16 TB, solid-state disk pack facilitates easy drive swaps in the field for additional storage.
The recorded data playback feature (coming soon) permits the user to reproduce an analog output of recorded data streams. Recorded data is time-tagged when the system is connected to external time/frequency sources.
The MBRA2-16T-IFXR has two independent inputs that can be used simultaneously. It also includes two independent sub-band tuners that can be deployed on either of the input channels. The sub-band tuners support output bandwidths from 12 kHz to 250 MHz. An intuitive Java-based command and control interface supports operation using Windows, OS X, and Linux platforms.
Features
- Save the entire 250 MHz input bandwidth to disk for hours
- Record at rates of up to 500 MByte/s in a single shot or in looped mode for indefinite recording duration
- Quickly and easily swap the removable 16 TB, solid-state disk pack for additional data storage
- Ascertain system health at a glance using the intuitive Web-based control interface
- Transport the portable system in a 16.4” x 8.8” x 13.3” rugged, lightweight, waterproof case (or rackmount the 2U 19″ chassis option)
