OCE11100 Datasheet, PDF (1/3 Pages) List of Unclassifed Manufacturers – High performance with high CPU efficiency

DATA SHEET
OneConnect^® OCe11100
Family of 10Gb Ethernet Network and Storage Adapters
Simplified Networking, Trusted SAN Interoperability and Increased Business Agility
The Problem
Data centers have traditionally used specialized networks to meet individual
I/O connectivity requirements for networking and storage. With increasing
deployments of blades and virtualized servers, data centers are inherently facing
network sprawl, primarily driven by deployments of multiple 1Gb Ethernet (1GbE)
links and external storage. This network sprawl has resulted in:
n Increased capital costs for adapters, switch ports and cables
n Increased operational costs for power, cooling and IT management
Emulex OneConnect 10GbE Platform
The Emulex OneConnect® OCe11101 network interface card (NIC) and OCe11102
Universal Converged Network Adapter (UCNA) are third-generation, high-
performance 10Gb Ethernet (10GbE) adapters that provides server connectivity
for network and/or storage traffic. The payoff is a rapid return on investment (ROI)
based on:
n Lower capital expenditure (CAPEX)—Single 10GbE adapter can replace storage
adapters and multiple 1GbE NICs¹
n Lower operational expenditure (OPEX)—One management console for network
and storage
n Higher virtualization ratios—Protocol offloads save CPU cycles and optimize
memory usage
Emulex OneConnect technology provides optimized performance for TCP/IP,
TOE, Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) and iSCSI protocols. Accelerators/offload
engines for all supported protocols allow OneConnect adapters to deliver maximum
performance, regardless of the mix of network traffic.¹
