Introduction

16 FCA2384 PCI-X Host Bus Adapter for OpenVMS and Tru64 UNIX Installation Guide

Performance Specifications

The FCA2384 PCI-X host bus adapter offers a highly integrated 2Gb/s Fibre

Channel HBA for use in servers based on either PCI or the latest PCI-X expansion

bus. The features of this PCI-X based HBA provide the flexibility and broad

interoperability needed for complex, highly scalable SANs.

The FCA2384 also features sophisticated hardware that provides superior

performance in SANs and provides best in class server CPU off load. This

exclusive hardware delivers low latency and high throughput in switched fabric,

arbitrated loop, and clustered environments. Support for fiber optic cabling is

provided through an embedded small form factor (LC) optical interface.

The FCA2384 is both ANSI Fibre Channel and PCI Local Bus Compliant and

supports:

■ Simultaneous full duplex 2 Gbps PCI bus speed data transfers of 400 MBps

■ Full fabric support using F_PORT and FL_Port connections

■ Onboard hardware context cache for superior fabric performance

■ FC-Tape (FC-2) devices

■ Point-to-point arbitrated-loop, and switch fabric FC connections

■ Storage protocol

■ Fibre Channel class 2 and 3

■ Automatic speed negotiation and topology detection

■ End-to-end parity protection for high data integrity

■ Buffered data architecture to support over 50km cabling at full 2Gb/s

bandwidth

Collectively, these characteristics create a high-performance Fibre Channel HBA.
