Dell D6085 QLogic 2Gb Fibre Channel Card
Description
Dell QLogic QLE2360, 64Bit 133Mhz PCI-X to 2Gb Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter Card, Dell part number D6085.
The QLE2360 is a high-performance, 2-Gbps to PCI-Express HBA. Unlike other HBAs, the QLE2360 delivers unprecedented levels of performance and availability. All HBAs in the SANblade QLE2360 family are managed by the QLogic SANsurfer FC HBA Manager, which provides centralized management and remote control of distributed HBAs.
PCI Express is a serial host bus that provides higher throughputs, lower pin counts, and ease of scalability. This technology is being adopted by major server OEMs. PCI Express x4, supported by the QLE2360, provides 2-GBps FC data rate, addressing increasing higher throughput requirements.
The QLE2360 has an enhanced RISC processor on the FC controller chip, providing up to 160,000 I/Os per second by having completely independent, internal resources for each port.
