Single-ASIC controller using the Emulex XE201 design
Auto-Negotiate to 16Gb, 8Gb, or 4Gb
Up to 1.2 million IOPS on a single port (six times more IOPS than previous generation 8Gb FC HBAs)
Cuts response times by up to 75% and doubles the throughput compared to the previous generation 8Gb FC HBAs
Exceeds 10 million hours mean time between failure (MTBF) with the most advanced data integrity protection (T10 PI) offload to protect against silent data corruption
PCIe Express 3.0 x8 host interface (5 GTps)
MSI-X support
x86 Fibre Channel common driver model with other Emulex adapters
Arbitrated loop (supported on 4Gb and 8Gb speeds only)
The Emulex 16Gb Fibre Channel Adapter family for Lenovo Flex System enables the highest FC speed access for Flex System compute nodes to an external storage area network (SAN). These adapters are based on the proven Emulex Fibre Channel stack, and work with 16 Gb Flex System Fibre Channel switch modules.
As the only 4-port HBAs for Flex System and ThinkSystem respectively, the FC5054 and LPm16004B-L provide unmatched scalability and redundancy. In addition, these two 4-port adapters have two separate ASICs with no bridge chip, so data flows directly to an independent PCIe bus for high availability without a single point of failure.
