Optimized Network and Storage Connectivity

The Emulex OCe10102-IX-D is a single-chip, high performance 10Gbp/s adapter that consolidates traffic for networking and iSCSI storage. A member of the Emulex OneConnect™ Universal Converged Network Adapter (UCNA) family, the OCe10102-IX-D iSCSI adapter supports a common 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) infrastructure for networking and storage, reducing capital expense (CapEx) for adapters, switches and cables, and operational expense (OpEx) for power, cooling and IT administration.

10 Gigabit Ethernet offload

10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) will become the standard backbone for enterprise-class networks. New multi-core server platforms, server virtualization and high-demand applications are all driving the need for low latency and high bandwidth. The OCe10102-IX-D iSCSI adapter delivers optimized 10GbE performance that meets these requirements with support for TCP/IP and TCP Chimney offloads.

iSCSI offload

The OCe10102-IX-D iSCSI adapter supports iSCSI offload, providing superior performance for the enterprise than iSCSI solutions based on software initiators and standard Network Interface Cards (NICs).

Boot from LAN/SAN

Preboot eXecutive Environment (PXE) and iSCSI boot support make the OCe10102-IX-D an ideal solution for blade servers and other diskless deployments.
