Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapters (HBA) enable data exchange over large distances & extend your existing server system by including communication interfaces using high-speed communication technology. All connections are redundant & hot-pluggable. The combination of hardware & software exemplifies the high-performance quality of communication. The number of system restarts is reduced thanks to optimized software & extended error check functions help improve the integrity of your company’s information LPe 12002 Fibre Channel card Streamlined installation & management, unrivaled scalability, & industry-leading virtualization support make the single-channel Emulex Light Pulse LPe 12000 & dual-channel LPe 12002 Fibre Channel host bus adapters (HBA) ideal solutions for enterprise, mixed-OS & virtual server environments. With powerful management capabilities & broad platform support, they deliver maximum performance in the broadest range of applications & environments. The Light Pulse HBAs’ highly integrated processor design minimized onboard components to improve host performance & efficiency. Advanced error-checking features ensure the integrity of block data as it traverses the SAN. The firmware-based architecture enables feature & performance upgrades without costly hardware changes. The unique Service Level Interface (SLI™) allows use of a common driver across all models of Emulex HBAs on a given OS platform. Installation & management facilities are designed to minimize server reboots & further simplify deployment. The HBAnyware enterprise-class management application has gained broad market acceptance with over 6 million Fibre Channel & FCo E ports managed to date. Building on the success of the HBAnyware application, Emulex has released One Command Manager. One Command Manager’s multi-protocol, cross platform architecture, provides centralized management of the adapters within the enterprise datacenter. One Command Manager streamlines IT administrative tasks by delivering uniform management across heterogeneous data center environments. With One Command Manager, IT administrators can increase management efficiency & flexibility by improving responsiveness to dynamic business environments. To ensure a transparent transition for customers who are using Emulex’s existing HBAnyware management solution, One Command Manager is backward compatible with HBAnyware Features 8 Gb Fibre Channel devices Comprehensive virtualization capabilities with support for N_ Port ID Virtualization (NPIV) & Virtual Fabric Block Guard ready
