Product Description

The QLE2562 is a PCI Express dual port Fiber Channel FC Host Bus Adapter HBA . The QLE2562 is part of the QLE2500 HBA product family that offers next generation 8Gb FC technology meeting the business requirements of the enterprise data center. The QLE2562 delivers enhanced security Quality of Service QoS and enables dynamic provisioning. The QLE2562 allows multiple logical virtual connections to share the same physical port. Each logical connection has its own resources and the ability to be managed independently. The QLE2562 takes advantage of QLogic StarPower technology ensuring power efficiency. QLogic StarPower technology offers dynamic and adaptive power management features such as power and bandwidth optimized intelligent PCI Express link training low-power switching power supplies and thermally efficient layout requiring lower airflows. The QLE2562 provides the highest data integrity by ensuring Overlapping Protection Domains OPD on both the control and data paths. The QLE2562 also utilizes Enhanced Hardware Assist Firmware Tracing EHAFT allowing more comprehensive debugging with standard drivers. The QLE2562 enables SAN-level authentication FC-SP fabric-level isolation NPIV and is capable of end-to-end data integrity T10 . The QLE2562 is backward compatible with 4 Gb and 2 Gb speeds. A single common driver per operating system for three generations of FC HBAs 8 Gb 4 Gb and 2 Gb simplifies deployment. QLogic s unified driver model firmware embedded in the driver eliminates potential interoperability issues between firmware and driver versions. The QLE2562 s API compatibility with 4 Gb products accelerates deployment while ensuring application compatibility.Primary InformationForm Factor :  Plug-in card Networking / Ports Qty :  2 Data Transfer Rate :  8 Gbps Connectivity Technology :  Wired Networking Type :  Network adapter Data Link Protocol :  Fibre Channel Networking Interface :  PCI Express x8 Features :  Auto-negotiation Quality of Service QoS  Service&SupportService & Support Type :  5 years warranty ExpansionInterfaces & Connections :  2 x network - 8Gb Fibre Channel - LC multi-mode x 2; 1 x PCI Express 2.0 x8 UNSPSC CodeUNSPSC Code :  43201404
