OCm14000-NX-OCP 10GbE
Ethernet Network Adapters
Overview
The Emulex OneConnect® OCm14000-OCP 10Gb Ethernet (10GbE) Network Adapters
provide high performance 10GbE connectivity in an Open Compute Project (OCP)
mezzanine form factor.
The OCm14000-OCP adapters enable:
n Increased data center IT agility and scalability through deployment of a secure multi-
tenant cloud
n Optimized server hardware utilization by scaling high density virtualization
n Deliver user-controlled bandwidth partitioning across workloads and management
services
The OCm14000-OCP adapters are designed for the high bandwidth and scalability
demands of enterprise applications, more scalable virtualization with support for RDMA
over Converged Ethernet (RoCE) fabric, enhanced Single Root I/O Virtualization (SR-IOV)
and Network Interface Card (NIC) port partitioning, and next generation overlay network
technologies that address the need for virtual machine (VM) mobility and massive scaling
of Layer 2 subnets inside private or hybrid cloud infrastructures.
The Open Compute Project Foundation is a rapidly growing community of engineers
around the world whose mission is to design and enable the delivery of the most
efficient server, storage and data center hardware designs for scalable computing. The
OCP designs are maximized for total cost of ownership, energy efficiency and reduced
complexity in the scalable computing space. The OCm14000-OCP adapters adhere to the
mezzanine card specification for OCP v2.0 motherboards.
Emulex Virtual Network Exceleration™ (VNeX)
overlay network offloads for multi-tenant cloud networking
Scaling existing technologies for private or public multi-tenant infrastructures requires
networking solutions that can enable VM-to-VM communication and virtual workload
migration across Layer 2 and Layer 3 boundaries without impacting connectivity or
performance.
At the same time, these solutions need to ensure isolation and security for thousands
or millions of tenant networks. However, with existing technology, the available 4094
Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) IDs are insufficient to isolate/secure each tenant in a
data center (private cloud) or hybrid cloud environment.
Key benefits
n Maximizes server hardware return on
investment (ROI) with high VM density
n Simplifies deployment of secure, scalable
multi-tenant cloud infrastructures
n Accelerates applications performance
n Provides the bandwidth needed for slot
constrained server platforms
n Reduces complexity through the deployment
of a common network platform
n Reduces management and infrastructure costs
