The LP9802DC Dual Channel PCI-X host bus adapter 
offers two independent 2Gb/s Fibre Channel HBA 
interfaces in a single PCI-X slot. It delivers exceptional 
performance through the use of two Emulex Pegasus 
ASICs, two 266MIPS onboard processors and high 
speed memory. The LP9802DC features automatic 
topology detection and automatic speed negotiation, 
which allows complete compatibility with existing 
1Gb/s Fibre Channel SANs, while allowing seamless 
upgrades to higher speed 2Gb/s SANs.
The LP9802DC provides the functionality of two of 
Emulex’s high performance PCI-X 133 MHz HBAs 
integrated onto one board, which provides bus 
compatibility with PCI-X or PCI 2.2 based systems. 
This provides the flexibility and broad interoperability 
needed for complex, highly scalable SANs. The 
LP9802DC provides a combination of features, 
including fabric support using F_Port and FL_Port 
connections, full-duplex data transfers, high data 
integrity features, support for all Fibre Channel 
topologies, and support for service classes 2 and 3, 
in a dual channel HBA.
The LP9802DC also features sophisticated 
hardware that provides superior performance in 
SANs, delivering low latency and high throughput in 
fabric, arbitrated loop and clustered environments. 
Support for fiber optic cabling is provided through an 
embedded small form factor (LC) optical interface.
Two full duplex 2Gb/s Fibre Channels deliver 
up to 800MB/s link bandwidth
