Product Description
The NetApp EF-X561202A-R6 is a high-performance dual-port 16Gb/s Fibre Channel (FC) controller card, engineered to facilitate robust and rapid data exchange between servers and storage area networks (SANs). This adapter card is a critical component for environments that rely on high-speed, low-latency access to shared storage resources, such as enterprise databases, virtualization platforms, and high-performance computing clusters. Each of the two ports on the EF-X561202A-R6 operates at a native speed of 16Gb/s, providing a combined bandwidth of up to 32Gb/s in full-duplex mode. This ensures that storage I/O operations are not hindered, allowing applications to perform at their peak. The card supports essential Fibre Channel features like N_Port ID Virtualization (NPIV), which allows multiple logical N_Ports to share a single physical N_Port, enhancing scalability and manageability within the SAN infrastructure. Designed specifically for integration with NetApp storage systems, including the E-Series and FAS families, this controller card ensures seamless compatibility and optimal performance. Its hot-pluggable design allows for installation or replacement without the need to power down the host system, minimizing downtime and maintaining business continuity. The EF-X561202A-R6 is crucial for organizations seeking to maximize the performance and reliability of their storage infrastructure.
