Product features
Get better performance at a competitive price
The 8 Gb series of fiber channel host bus adapters are priced only slightly higher than equivalent 4 Gb HBAs, yet they have the ability to deliver twice the I/O performance.Be well positioned for the future with 8 Gb technology
Since 4 Gb technology will be considered "old" soon, customers have the opportunity to move to 8 Gb technology, which is backward compatible with 4 Gb and 2 Gb and will serve them for a much longer period than 4 Gb technology.Enhanced for storage intensive applications
When using storage intensive applications like backup/restore, database transactions, and rich media, the improved I/O performance allows you to store and retrieve data much faster.Supports virtualized servers for overall effective server utilization
Today, the average server operates at approximately 25% of its capacity and IT administrators are being challenged to increase server utilization and reduce operational costs.Evolving HBA technology keeps pace with the effective bandwidth of server busses
The 8Gb Fiber Channel technology is a natural complement to the PCIe 2.0 bus architecture and will provide servers with ample bandwidth and throughput performance.Redundant HBAs for high availability
Failover of HBAs to prevent single point of failure. Two single port cards have higher data availability than one dual port card.Latest generation technology saves power
It eliminates unnecessary internal activity results in reduced power consumption and waste.Key selling points
- First step into the 8 Gb future
- Redundant HBAs for high availability
- Reduced power consumption
- Automatic host bus sensing and automatic speed negotiation provide investment protection
- Advanced embedded support for virtualized environments
- Support for Boot-from-SAN provides high reliability
- MSI-X support for increased efficiency
- Data path protection
- MSI-X supports improves processor utilization and interrupt handling efficiency
