Description
The LightPulse ™ LP9000 Fibre Channel PCI
host adapter provides the flexibility and broad
interoperability needed for complex highly
scalable SANs. The LP9000 provides a unique
combination of features, including switched fabric
support using F_Port and FL_Port connections,
full-duplex data transfers, high data integrity
features, support for all Fibre Channel topologies
and support for service class 2 and 3.
The LP9000 also features sophisticated hardware
that provides superior performance in storage area
networks, delivering low latency and high
throughput in switched, arbitrated loop and
clustered environments. Support for both copper
and fiber optic cabling is provided through
standard GBIC interfaces.
The LP9000 delivers exceptional performance
through the use of Emulex’s Centaur ASIC, a 266
MIPs onboard processor and state of the art dual
ported buffer memory. The LP9000 features a
64-bit, 66 MHz PCI interface and provides the
richest set of features available.
Driver Support |
The LightPulse ™ LP9000 is complemented by a
rich suite of software support including storage
protocol (SCSI), network protocol (IP) as well as
concurrent multi-protocol (SCSI & IP)
operation, enabling advanced storage area network
(SAN) implementations in Windows 2000, Windows NT,
HP-UX, Linux, NetWare, Solaris and AIX
environments. All drivers are also fully
compatible with the Emulex LP9002L, LP8000,
LP7000E, LP952L and LP850 host bus adapters.
