Pathlight Technology was a pioneer in the field of Storage Area Networks. Based in Ithaca, NY, Pathlight was formed in 1994 as a spin-out from Ironics, a manufacturer of VME computer, IO and memory boards.
Pathlight was involved in the development of Serial Storage Architecture products, and in Fibre Channel products.
Pathlight merged with ADIC in 2001. [1]
Pathlight Technologies was founded by Said Rahmani in 1994.
Between 1997 and 2000, Rand Capital participated in four rounds of investments in Pathlight Technology. [2]
ADIC acquired Pathlight in January 2001 for a reported $265 million. [3] Said Rahmani became VP of R&D at ADIC after the acquisition.
One of the significant products from Pathlight was the SAN Gateway, which provided multi-directional bridging between multiple Parallel SCSI ports and multiple Fibre Channel ports. IBM teamed with Pathlight to provide the SAN Data Gateway [4] (IBM Product 2108-G07 [5] ) and SAN Data Gateway Router (IBM Product 2108-R03 [6] ).
