QLE2562D - QLogic Dual Port Fibre Channel 8Gb/s to PCI Express Host Bus Network Adapter

Description

The QLogic QLE2562D is a high-performance dual-port 8Gb/s Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter (HBA). This adapter is engineered to deliver robust and efficient connectivity between servers and Fibre Channel Storage Area Networks (SANs). With its 8Gb/s per-port capability, it offers significantly increased throughput compared to previous generations, making it suitable for the most demanding enterprise storage workloads, including large databases, high-transaction environments, and extensive virtualization deployments. The adapter utilizes the PCI Express 2.0 x4 interface, providing ample bandwidth to the host system and ensuring that the HBA can operate at its full potential without being constrained by the PCIe bus. This combination of high-speed Fibre Channel ports and a fast PCIe interface allows for rapid data transfers, reduced latency, and improved overall storage performance. The dual-port design also offers redundancy, allowing for failover configurations to maintain data availability in the event of a port or SAN path failure. QLogic is a recognized leader in Fibre Channel technology, and the QLE2562D benefits from their extensive experience in developing reliable and feature-rich HBAs. This adapter typically includes advanced features for error handling, management, and performance optimization, ensuring seamless integration into complex SAN environments. It is designed for enterprise-grade reliability, providing the consistent performance and uptime required for mission-critical applications.
