The Emulex Gen 6 (32Gb) Fibre Channel (FC) Host Bus Adapters (HBAs) by Broadcom are designed to address the demanding performance, reliability and management requirements of modern networked storage systems that utilize high performance and low latency solid state storage drives for caching and persistent storage as well as hard disk drive arrays. Fibre Channel is the gold standard for network storage connectivity in enterprise and cloud deployments. The latest Emulex Gen 6 FC HBAs offer higher performance, lower latency, enhanced diagnostics and manageability for Cisco UCS C-Series rack servers. The LPe32000-series HBAs are available with single or dual 32GFC optics. Unique to Fibre Channel technology is its deep ecosystem support making it ideal for large scale, easy- to-manage storage deployments. Users can count on a complete suite of management software, in- box drivers for mainstream server operating systems, software-defined storage APIs and tools, and the strength to support high service- level agreement (SLA) applications. Accelerate The unique Emulex Dynamic Multi-core Architecture delivers unparalleled performance and more efficient port utilization than other HBAs by applying all ASIC resources to any port that needs it. Compared to the previous generation, Emulex Gen 6 HBAs deliver 2x greater bandwidth— 12,800MBps (2 ports 32G, full duplex), less than half the latency, and support an industry-leading 1.6 million IOPS on a single port, ensuring SLAs are met. Emulex Gen 6 HBAs are an excellent choice for database applications as recent TPC-H testing in a data warehousing environment have demonstrated up to 71% faster completion times vs. the previous generations of HBAs. To enable the highest Virtual Machine density, Gen 6 HBAs provide support for up to 255 virtual functions, 1,024 Message Signaled Interrupts and expansive on-board context for exchanges and logins. 1.

Emulex Gen 6 Fibre Channel HBAs for Cisco UCS C-Series Product Brief NVM Express (NVMe) is a relatively new protocol for solid-state storage devices built with non-volatile memory technologies. NVMe provides substantially lower latency for storage I/O operations and significantly higher IOPS per device. NVMe scales-up the number of devices it can address by adopting NVMe over Fabrics technology. Emulex Gen 6 HBAs are NVMe over Fabrics-enabled, providing an additional 55% lower latency for storage I/O operations versus SCSI. Gen 6 NVMe-enabled HBAs support NVMe over Fabrics and SCSI concurrently, allowing datacenters to transition to all-flash storage at their own pace. Protect Emulex Gen 6 FC HBAs deliver enhanced security via the new secure firmware update feature which protects and ensures the authenticity of device firmware. Forward Error Correction (FEC) is a Gen 6 Fibre Channel standard feature that provides enhanced data reliability and performance by automatically detecting and recovering from bit errors. It is especially useful in diverse and complex user environments such as blade system implementations. FEC is a digital signal processing technique that introduces redundant data, called an error correcting code, prior to data transmission. FEC then provides the receiver with the ability to correct errors without a reverse channel to request the retransmission of data, which improves performance. T10 Protection Information (T10-PI) data integrity with high performance hardware offload provides data protection from the server to the storage array. As one of the founders of the Data Integrity Initiative (DII), Emulex, along with Oracle and Seagate, was instrumental in defining the T10-PI standard, which, along with the Data Integrity Extensions (DIX) standard, delivers full end-to-end data integrity. T10- PI assures the validity of I/O operations through the exchange of verification information during data transmissions. Emulex HBAs are renowned for reliability, ensuring maximum SAN uptime. Their “It Just Works” reputation is based on 17 million installed ports with proven industry-leading reliability of 10 million hours field Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF). Control The flagship OneCommand® Manager enterprise-class management application features a multiprotocol, cross-platform architecture that provides centralized management of all current and previous generations of Emulex FC HBAs. This enables IT administrators to manage network connectivity with one tool for maximum efficiency. Emulex HBA troubleshooting is simplified with OneCapture TM, an Emulex device driver utility that gathers system, adapter, device driver, and applications information. Data collected by OneCapture is compressed into a single file and can be sent to Broadcom Technical Support for analysis when debugging system issues or for diagnostic purposes.
