The LP9802 PCI-X host bus adapter offers a highly integrated 2Gb/s Fiber Channel HBA for use in servers based on either PCI or the latest PCI-X expansion bus. The LP9802 delivers exceptional performance through the use of an Emulex Pegasus ASIC, a 266MIPs onboard processor, an embedded 1Gig/2Gig SERDES, and a high performance unified QDR SRAM. The LP9802 features automatic topology detection and automatic speed negotiation capability. These capabilities allow complete compatibility with existing 1Gb/s Fiber Channel SANs, while allowing seamless upgrades to higher speed 2Gb/s SANs. The features of this PCI-X based HBA provide the flexibility and broad interoperability needed for complex, highly scalable SANs. The LP9802 provides a combination of features, including switched fabric support using F Port and FL Port connections, full-duplex data transfers, high data integrity features, support for all Fiber Channel topologies, and support for service classes 2 and 3. The LP9802 also features sophisticated hardware that provides superior performance in SANs and provides best in class server CPU offload. This exclusive hardware delivers low latency and high throughput in switched fabric, arbitrated loop and clustered environments. Support for fiber optic cabling is provided through an embedded small form factor (LC) optical interface.
