Cisco Unified Computing System Overview
The Cisco Unified Computing System
™
(Cisco UCS
™
) is a next-generation data center platform that unites
computing, networking, storage access, and virtualization resources into a cohesive system designed to reduce
total cost of ownership (TCO) and increase business agility. The system integrates a low-latency, lossless
10 Gigabit Ethernet unified network fabric with enterprise-class, x86-architecture servers. The system is an
integrated, scalable, multichassis platform in which all resources participate in a unified management domain.
Product Overview
The Cisco UCS CNA M73KR-E Emulex Converged Network Adapter (CNA) is a high-performance 10-Gbps Fibre
Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) mezzanine-card adapter that consolidates traffic for networking, Fibre Channel, and
FCoE storage for Cisco UCS B-Series Blade Servers (Figure 1). The Cisco UCS CNA M73KR-E supports a
common 10 Gigabit Ethernet infrastructure for unified netwo
rking and storage; extends Cisco’s standards-based
unified network fabric; reduces capital expenditures (CapEx) for adapters, switches, and cables; and reduces
operating expenses (OpEx) for power, cooling, and IT administration.
