Manufacturer : Lenovo Group Limited

Manufacturer Part No : 01CV750

Features

• Maximum performance with up to 1.3 million input/output operations per second (IOPS) to support larger server virtualization deployments and scalable cloud initiatives and performance to match new multicore processors SSDs/flash storage and faster server host bus architectures.
• Independent function transmit and receive buffers an on-chip CPU DMA channels and a firmware image for each port enable complete port-level isolation prevent errors and firmware crashes from propagating across all ports and provide predictable and scalable performance across all ports.
• Support forward error correction (FEC) to enhance reliability of transmission and thereby performance.
• Industry-standard class-specific control (CS_CTL)-based frame prioritization Quality of Service (QoS) helps alleviate network congestion by prioritizing traffic for time-sensitive mission critical workloads for optimized performance.
• T10-PI data integrity with high performance offload provides end-to-end data corruption protection.
• Support for Message Signaled Interrupts eXtended (MSI-X) improves host utilization and enhances application performance.
• Fabric-assigned port worldwide name (FA-WWN) and fabric-based boot LUN discovery (F-BLD) pre-provisioning services allow servers to be quickly deployed replaced and moved across the SAN; the creation of zones LUNs and other services can be completed before the servers arrive on site.
• Using the Brocade ClearLink diagnostic port (D_Port) available on the Brocade Gen 5 switches administrators can quickly run automated diagnostic tests to assess the health of links and fabric components.
• Read diagnostic parameters (RDP) feature provides detailed port media and optics diagnostics to easily discover and diagnose link-related errors and degrading conditions on any N_Port-to-F_Port link.
• Link cable beacon (LCB) enables administrators to visually identify both ends of a physical link by flashing HBA's LEDs simplifying identification of the connection peers within server racks without tracing the cable.
