LPe31000/LPe32000-Series for Cisco UCS C-Series and MDS 9000 Product Family
Faster Flash. Better Virtualization. Lossless Networking.
The Emulex Gen 6 (16/32Gb) Fibre Channel (FC) Host Bus Adapters (HBAs) by Broadcom are designed to address the demanding performance, reliability and management requirements of modern networked storage systems that utilize high performance and low latency solid state storage drives for caching and persistent storage as well as hard disk drive arrays.
Fibre Channel is the gold standard for network storage connectivity in enterprise and cloud deployments. The latest Emulex Gen 6 FC HBAs offer higher performance, lower latency, enhanced diagnostics and manageability for Cisco UCS C-Series rack servers. The LPe32000-series HBAs are available with single or dual 32GFC optics. The LPe31000 is available with dualport 16GFC optics.
Unique to Fibre Channel technology is its deep ecosystem support making it ideal for large scale, easyto- manage storage deployments. Users can count on a complete suite of management software, inbox drivers for mainstream server operating systems, software-defined storage APIs and tools, and the strength to support high servicelevel agreement (SLA) applications.
