T35689iu-Tableau

T35689IU SATA/IDE/SAS/USB/FireWire

Unmatched Acquisition Flexibility

The T35689iu is the latest integrated OEM forensic bridge from Tableau. This product, available from all Tableau resellers, supports write-blocked acquisitions of up to eight different types of storage media: IDE, SATA, SAS, USB 3.0/2.0/1.1, and FireWire 800/400. No other hardware write-blocker available today can match the forensic imaging capabilities of the T35689iu.

The T35689iu mounts in one 5.25″ half-height drive bay at the front of a forensic workstation and connects to the host computer via a SuperSpeed USB 3.0 port.

As with all other Tableau products, firmware updates are easy to apply using the Tableau Firmware Update utility, which has been rewritten to support product firmware updates via USB. The T35689iu incorporates the exclusive Tableau «U» update button for secure and reliable management of product firmware updates.

Each T35689iu ships with a complete set of hard drive power and signal cables (TC2-8-R2, T4-8-R2, TC6-8, TC-USB3, and TC7-9-9). For integration into forensic workstations, USB 3.0 cables in various lengths are available for optional purchase.
