Emulex Produced A New Host Bus Adapter Express Module


FiberChannel and 1Gb / s Ethernet in one ExpressModule ™ host bus adapter (HBA). ExpressModuleHBA targeted SunBlade ™ 6000 modular system that can be virtualizedServers, Large or mixed-type storage area network (SAN) as well as local area network (LAN) Environment to provide higher performance, excellent flexibility and a higher slot utilization.

Emulex's chief marketing officer and senior vice president of business development SteveDaheb said: "SunBlade6000 modular system with excellent scalability and high performance, and Emulex's ExpressModule HBA integration can improve theTransmissionRate, more efficient use of CPU, the I / O-intensive applications and server virtualization to provide support. We are committed to a wide range of connectivitySolutionsTo provide customers with enterprise-class scalability, excellent flexibility and comprehensive virtualization capabilities. This announcement further demonstrates Emulex and Sun Win-Win Team advantage. "

Emulex multi-protocol ExpressModuleHBA use Sun Modular architecture, support hot-plug feature of high-density SAN extension to avoid the blade server that is running the installation, re-configuration, and the uninstall process, when any interruption. This will provide customers a flexible SAN connectivity solutions, to achieve server virtualization, blade servers and large-scale environments fully exploited. In addition, EmulexExpressModuleHBA as a peripheral to connect to each blade server, can reduce the heat and Power Calls for the impact of blade servers.

SunMicrosystems, senior director of storage marketing JasonSchaffer, said: "Customers have been seeking a higher capacity and processing power, but also the hope of finding lower energy consumption, cooling and space requirements of an effective manner. Revolutionary SunBlade 6000 modular system with a flexible Emulex ExpressModule high-performance LAN and SAN connectivity solutions that not only meet the requirements of customers, but also to deliver more value. Sun Blade 6000 Series is a consolidation and virtualization, a variety of applications (from the network to the blade server background) is the ideal choice. We have been In the unremitting efforts, strive to offer our customers the most advanced enterprise-class solutions to meet the evolving data center needs. "

Designed specifically for SunBlade6000 system, Emulex is compatible with standard multi-protocol ExpressModuleHBA to Emulex 4Gb / s and 8Gb / s Fiber Channel LightPulse ® HBA, with Linux, Solaris ™ operating system, VMware, and Windows platforms to achieve full interoperability. Integrates a dual-channel 8Gb / s Fiber Channel and dual-port 1Gb / s Ethernet Emulex ExpressModule HBA (Sun model SG-XPCIEFCGBE-E8-Z) in the Sun and its authorized dealers for sale.
