Amherst, NY, June 27, 2012 --(PR.com)-- ATTO Technology, Inc., announced today the availability of their FastFrameTM 10GBASE-T Network Interface Cards (NICs). Built upon Intel technology, FastFrame 10GBASE-T NICs boast 47% faster Fibre Channel performance than existing structured twisted-pair copper cabling, ensuring usability in any data center.
