Overview
 
The
 
IBM
 
System
 
Storage
 
DS4000
 
FC
 
4Gbps
 
PCI-X
 
Single/Dual
 
Port
 
HBA
 
is
 
a
 
4Gbps
 
high-performance,
 
direct
 
memory
 
access
 
(DMA),
 
bus
 
master,
 
Fibre
 
Channel
 
host
 
adapter
 
designed
 
for
 
high-end
 
systems.
 
The
 
function
 
and
 
performance
 
are
 
derived
 
from
 
the
 
ISP2422
 
chip
 
(see
 
 
making
 
this
 
FC
 
4Gbps
 
PCI-X
 
Adapter
 
a
 
leading-edge
 
host
 
adapter.
 
The
 
ISP2422
 
chip
 
combines
 
a
 
powerful,
 
reduced
 
instruction
 
set
 
computer
 
(RISC)
 
processor,
 
a
 
Fibre
 
Channel
 
protocol
 
manager
 
(FPM)
 
with
 
one
 
4
 
GB
 
Fibre
 
Channel
 
transceiver,
 
and
 
a
 
peripheral
 
component
 
interconnect
 
(PCI)
 
or
 
peripheral
 
component
 
interconnect-extended
 
(PCI-X)
 
local
 
bus
 
interface
 
in
 
a
 
single-chip
 
solution.
 
The
 
FC
 
4Gbps
 
PCI-X
 
Adapter
 
supports
 
all
 
Fibre
 
Channel
 
(FC)
 
peripheral
 
devices
 
that
 
support
 
private-loop
 
direct
 
attach
 
(PLDA)
 
and
 
fabric-loop
 
attach
 
(FLA).
 
The
 
FC
 
4Gbps
 
PCI-X
 
Adapter
 
connects

Mainframe
 
computers
 
v

outlined
 
in
 
the
 
SCSI-3
 
Fibre
 
Channel
 
Protocol
 
(SCSI-FCP)
 
standard.
 
Fibre
 
Channel
 
is
 
a
 
high-speed
 
data
 
transport
 
technology
 
used
 
for
 
mass
 
storage
 
and
 
networking.
 
Using
 
a
 
Fibre
 
Channel
 
Arbitrated
 
loop
 
(FC-AL),
 
126
 
Fibre

can
 
be
 
supported,

with
 
Ultra
 
SCSI.
 
The
 
FC
 
4Gbps
 
PCI-X
 
Adapter
 
uses
 
a
 
multimode
 
shortwave
 
optical
 
interface
 
for
 
distances
 
up
 
to
 
500
 
meters
 
when
 
operating
 
at
 
1Gbps,
 
300
 
meters
 
when
 
operating
 
at
 
2Gbps,
 
and
 
150
 
meters
 
when
 
operating
 
at
 
4Gbps.
 
The
 
FC
 
4Gbps
 
PCI-X
 
Adapter
 
is
 
a
 
4Gbps
 
Fibre
 
Channel
 
device
 
that
 
supports
 
data
 
transfer
 
rates
 
up
 
to
 
400MB
 
per
 
second
 
half-duplex
 
and
 
800MB
 
per
 
second
 
full-duplex
 
on
 
optical
 
interfaces.
