More Possibilities than Ever Before

Any application. Any study. Any budget.

Learn MoreTwo run modes. High output or rapid run. Flexibility to batch process multiple samples with high output in a single run, or get rapid results with fewer samples for time-critical studies.
Learn MoreOne run mode. High output. Generate the highest output and number of reads for batch processing multiple samples in a single run.

*Anticipated performance parameters, final specifications subject to change.
**Paired 150-cycle runs are supported only in the rapid run mode. Total output generated with 2 × 150 bp run anticipated to be up to 90 Gb per flow cell. Run time is approximately 40 hours.
***Based on an Illumina PhiX library at supported cluster densities.
