Q-logic QLE2562 PCI-E x8 8GB Fibre Channel Dual Port Host Bus Adapter 0MFP5T

OVERVIEW:
QLogic® 2500 Series Adapters are designed to meet the business requirements of the enterprise data center through the lowest possible power consumption and the highest level of performance. These adapters interface to the host server with a PCI Express® (PCIe®) 2.0 bus, ensuring no internal performance bottlenecks.

The 2500 Series 8Gb Adapters are the highest performing adapters in QLogics industry-leading Fibre Channel technology portfolio. Choosing QLogic 8Gb adapters will not only meet todays demanding data center requirements by providing power and virtualization optimization, but investment protection is built in through backward compatibility with previous generations (4Gb and 2Gb) technology. In addition, 2500 Series Adapters work in both PCIe Gen1 and 2.0 host bus interface platforms. QLogics unique Dynamic Power Management technology enables the 2500 Series Adapters to provide the lowest possible power consumption.

VIRTUALIZATION OPTIMIZED:
The 2500 Series Adapters deliver enhanced security and quality of service (QoS), and they enable dynamic provisioning. 2500 Series Adapters also allow multiple logical (virtual) connections to share the same physical port. Each logical connection has its own resources and the ability to be managed independently.

POWER OPTIMIZED:
The 2500 Series Adapters take advantage of QLogic StarPower technology, ensuring power efficiency. QLogic StarPower technology offers dynamic and adaptive power management features such as power and bandwidth optimized intelligent PCIe link training, low-power switching power supplies, and a thermally efficient layout requiring lower airflows.

RELIABILITY,
AVAILABILITY,
SERVICEABILITY (RAS) OPTIMIZED:
The 2500 Series Adapters provide the highest data integrity by ensuring overlapping protection domains (OPDs) on both the control and data paths. In addition, 2500 Series adapters use enhanced hardware assist firmware tracing (EHAFT), allowing more comprehensive debugging with standard drivers.
