The QLogic 32 Gb Fibre Channel (FC) 1-port and 2-port Host Bus Adapters (HBAs) are Generation 6 (Gen 6) FC adapters for Lenovo ThinkSystem servers. These adapters are based on Cavium technology and offer industry leading native FC performance with extremely low CPU usage with full hardware offloads. With performance of up to 1.3 million I/O operations per second (IOPS), these adapters can be used to support all-flash arrays (AFAs) -- Fibre Channel storage systems comprised completely of high-speed solid-state drives.
Powerful management tools automate and simplify SAN provisioning to help reduce cost and complexity, while the unmatched 32 Gbps performance eliminates potential I/O bottlenecks in today's powerful multiprocessor, multicore servers.
