Key Features

• 4-port 16 Gb Fibre Channel adapter
• Dual-ASIC controller using the Emulex XE201 design
• Auto-Negotiate to 16Gb, 8Gb, or 4Gb
• Up to 2.4 million IOPS (dual ASICs: 2x 1.2 million IOPS)
• Up to 1.2 million IOPS on a single port (six times more IOPS than previous generation 8Gb FC HBAs)
• Cuts response times by up to 75% and doubles the throughput compared to the previous generation 8Gb FC HBAs
• Exceeds 10 million hours mean time between failure (MTBF) with the most advanced data integrity protection (T10 PI) offload to protect against silent data corruption
• Two PCIe Express 3.0 x8 host interfaces (each 5 GTps), one for each ASIC
• ASICs treated as separate devices by the driver: No shared resources (that is, no PCIe bridge) between ASICs and each ASIC has its own firmware chip
• MSI-X support
