| Why QLogic? |
|
Designed and deployed by major server and storage OEMs, the QLogic SANblade QLA2310F host bus adapters (HBAs) offer the high performance of 2-Gbps Fibre Channel combined with 64-bit, 66-MHz PCI-X. These multimode optic HBAs are targeted for servers in direct attach storage (DAS) as well as storage area network (SAN) environments.
|
| Cost Effective |
For a cost-effective, optic solution for your SAN with the added performance of 2 Gbps, the QLA2310F is the right solution.
|
| Leading Single Chip Integration |
The QLA2310F uniquely integrates a RISC processor, a Fibre protocol engine, and transceivers into a single, efficient FC controller chip that increases reliability and performance by lowering CPU utilization.
|
| Broad OEM Acceptancen |
The QLA2310F HBA is validated by every major OEM including Dell, EMC, HDS, HP, IBM, and Sun. The QLA2310’s extensive certification from major server and storage manufacturers makes it the perfect choice for multiplatform requirements.
|
| Simplified Setup |
Point-and-click installation and configuration wizards simply the HBA setup process. Storage administrators can quickly deploy HBAs across a SAN using standard HBA management tools and device utilities. The QLA2310F is also fully compatible with industry standard application programming interfaces (APIs), including SNIA HBA API and SMI-S, thereby allowing administrators to manage QLogic HBAs using third-party software applications.
|
| Proven Architecture |
|
The QLA2310F architecture is the result of more than 15 years of progressive development and testing. Proven architecture from QLogic delivers higher overall reliability and enables advanced functionality with its single-chip integration, placing QLogic years ahead of its competitors. The QLA2310F also has proven interoperability with all major software applications, hardware platforms, and operating systems.
|
| The Bottom Line |
Driving the standard for interoperability with extensive FC testing in SAN environments, you can feel confident in choosing the QLogic solution.
