DescriptionThe LP10000 family of PCI-X host bus adapter
offers a highly integrated 2Gb/s Fibre Channel HBA for use in servers
based on either the conventional PCI or the latest PCI-X expansion bus
architectures. The LP10000 delivers exceptional performance through the
use of a sixth generation Emulex Thor controller. The Thor high
performance controller is a highly integrated dual channel device that
combines industry standard embedded ARM9™ processors, 1Gig/2Gig SERDES,
and protocol technology into a single module. The LP10000 family
includes both single- and dual-channel HBAs, in a low profile PCI (MD2)
compliant card format.
The robust features of Emulex's LightPulse HBAs provide the
flexibility and broad interoperability needed for complex, highly
scalable SANs. The LP10000 family is fully software compatible with
previous generations of Emulex's market leading HBAs, enabling customers
to effortlessly migrate to Emulex's new HBAs, while also allowing for
simplified integration into existing storage area networks. These
Thor-based HBAs, and previous generation Emulex HBAs, leverage Emulex's
recently introduced centralized HBA management suite, HBAnyware™.
Emulex's HBAnyware reduces total cost of ownership and planned downtime
by enabling sophisticated management capabilities such as remote
firmware upgrades from a single console anywhere in a Fibre Channel or
iSCSI SAN.
The Emulex LP10000 HBAs feature specialized hardware that yields
superior performance in SANs and provides best in class server CPU
offload. This architecture delivers low latency and high throughput in
switched fabric, arbitrated loop and clustered environments.
