QLA2310-CK - QLogic SANblade QLA2310 Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter - 1 x HSSDC - PCI-X - 2Gbps

Description

The QLogic QLA2310-CK is a robust Host Bus Adapter (HBA) engineered to provide high-speed and reliable connectivity to Fibre Channel Storage Area Networks (SANs). This adapter is built upon the PCI-X bus architecture, a standard for high-performance I/O in enterprise environments, and operates at a 66MHz clock speed. Its primary function is to bridge the server's internal system bus to the Fibre Channel network, enabling efficient data transfer between servers and storage devices. With a 2Gb/s Fibre Channel interface, the QLA2310-CK offers substantial bandwidth for demanding storage applications. This speed is crucial for environments such as large databases, virtualization platforms, and high-performance computing clusters where rapid access to storage is a critical factor for application performance. The adapter's design focuses on minimizing latency and maximizing throughput, ensuring that storage I/O does not become a bottleneck for server operations. This specific model, the QLA2310-CK, is designed for servers that require dedicated and high-performance access to SAN storage. It supports various Fibre Channel protocols and features, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of SAN infrastructure components. The PCI-X interface makes it suitable for integration into servers that utilize this bus type, providing a stable and high-bandwidth connection for storage-intensive tasks.
