INFO-X Emulex LP10000M2 2GB 133MHZ 64-BIT Fc HBA

The Emulex LP10000 family of host bus adapters offers highly integrated 2Gb/s Fiber Channel to PCI/PCI-X connectivity solutions for enterprise-class storage area networks. The robust features of Emulexs LightPulse HBAs provide the flexibility and broad interoperability needed for complex, highly scalable heterogeneous SANs. The LP10000 builds upon the Emulex software architecture, which enables the independence of an operating systems device driver from the underlying HBA platform. This exclusive HBA architecture is the foundation for proven reductions in the total cost of ownership of a SAN. The Emulex LP10000 HBA architecture provides a platform that is fully software compatible with previous generations of Emulexs market leading HBAs. This enables customers to effortlessly migrate to Emulexs new HBAs, while also allowing for simplified integration into existing storage area networks. Choosing to standardize on Emulex HBAs provides significant investment protection. The Emulex firmware-based architecture provides the capability to update prior generation HBAs to current standards while leveraging newly released management capabilities and performance features. The centralized HBA management suite HBAnyware reduces both total cost of ownership and server downtime. This feature is available on the LP10000 as well as previous generations of Emulex HBAs. Complementing the Emulex software architecture, HBAnyware enables sophisticated management capabilities such as remote firmware upgrades from a single console anywhere in a SAN. Emulex LP10000 HBAs feature specialized hardware, which yields superior performance in SANs and provides best in class server CPU offload. Emulexs HBA architecture delivers low latency and high throughput in switched fabric and arbitrated loop topologies, and in clustered environments.
