Emulex
Emulex products include:
- OneConnect Universale Converged Network Adapter (UCNA)—A single-chip, high-performance 10Gb/s Ethernet architecture provides server connectivity for network and storage traffic with multifunction server adapters. OneConnect UCNAs support Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE), iSCSI, and TCP/IP while leveraging mature management tools and processes. By consolidating traffic, it simplifies network management and significantly reduces total cost of ownership (TCO).
- OneSecure HBA—An 8Gb/s Fibre Channel encryption HBA provides affordable, high-performance encryption throughout the data lifecycle. It off-loads processing capabilities from EMC PowerPath Encryption with RSA to provide a complete security solution for Fibre Channel-connected hosts that encrypt data without sacrificing server performance, system uptime, or stability for high-work load data center environments.
- LightPulse® Fibre Channel HBA—4 Gb/s and 8 Gb/s HBAs is installed in the server to provide Fibre Channel connectivity from the server to the storage area network (SAN). They are available in single-, dual-, and quad-channel options and are tested and qualified by EMC. Emulex HBAs are supported by a wide range of operating system environments including Microsoft Windows, Solaris, VMware, and Linux.
