QLogic PCIe Quard Port Fibre Channel Adapters QLE2690 Series
PCIe 3.0, x8, Dual / 2-ports, 16GFC, SR-Optic, SFP+, Low Profile
Manufacturer Part Number: QLE2692-SR-CK
Key Features:
- Powerful virtualization features, making this adapter ideal for virtualized environments that need excellent I/O performance to service growing numbers of virtual machines (VMs).
- Industry-leading native FC performance with extremely low CPU usage leveraging full hardware offloads for next-generation, performance-sensitive virtualized workloads
- 16GFC FC per port maximum throughput for high-bandwidth SAN traffic and low latency to maximize all-flash array (AFA) technology
- Higher per port performance than traditional Gen 5 FC with up to 650K IOPS per port (up to 1.3 million IOPS for dual-port and up to 2.6 million IOPS for quad-port)
- Lower operational expenditures (OPEX) with 75% lower power requirements and 75% greater power efficiency
- Improvements in TCO with StorFusion technology, offering streamlined deployment, end-to-end diagnostics, and quality of service (QoS) optimization when used in conjunction with supported Brocade switches
- High-availability port isolation architecture for 100% predictable, deterministic, and scalable performance
- Overlapping protection domains (OPD) to ensure a high level of reliability as data moves to and from the PCI bus and FC network
- FC-NVMe capability for simultaneous access to NVMe™ and FCP Storage on the same port
