2Gb/s FIBRE CHANNEL PCI-X STORAGE ADAPTER
Profit from LSI Logic Fibre Channel
The card delivers incredible performance and
enterprise-class features at real world pricing.
The LSI7102XP-LC effortlessly supports point-to-
point, arbitrated loop and switched fabric
environments through automatic topology
detection.  Additionally, the LSI7102XP-LC
provides the perfect complement to existing
SANs by providing legacy support with automatic
link speed detection.  The LSI7102XP-LC performs
exceptionally in any networked storage
environment with its low profile PCI form factor
providing flexibility for any enclosure.  All of
this comes at an unbeatable price/performance
ratio that provides more profit in system
integration and a better overall value 
to end customers.
Broadly Certified & Interoperable
Rigorously tested and broadly certified,
customers will be able to operate with
confidence, leveraging the card’s support for
components from all major suppliers.  LSI Logic
offers a full line of Fibre Channel host bus
adapters that comply with industry standards
and offer the highest levels of performance,
functionality, reliability and availability. 
Powered by Fusion-MPT
Based on LSI Logic’s Fusion-MPT (Message
Passing Technology) architecture, the
LSI7102XP-LC provides outstanding I/O
performance while enabling extremely high
host processor efficiency. This enables an
exceptionally thin, common device driver for
any given OS. This, in turn, promotes higher
performance and greatly reduces the
integration and testing effort required for
systems previously qualified using Fusion-MPT
powered devices. 
MyStorage: Making SANs Simple
Storage area networks don’t have to be
expensive or complex.  LSI Logic believes that the
attractive benefits of SANs should be easily
enjoyed.  The MyStorage management software
fully automates the task of deploying and
maintaining server to SAN connectivity.  From the
most modest, small-scale DAS replacement to an
ambitious data center, MyStorage keeps it simple. 
Through an intuitive graphical user interface
(GUI), this powerful utility helps customers
manage storage quickly and easily. Using
MyStorage, users can inspect and control all 
LSI Logic adapters with point and click
simplicity.  A rich suite of tools enables remote
firmware update, link tuning, load balancing,
path configuration, path monitoring, diagnostics 
and error reporting. Altogether, MyStorage
delivers a complete set of management tools
that are simple to use.   
Wide Range of OS & System Support
The LSI7102XP-LC supports all key 32-bit and
64-bit versions of Microsoft Windows, Linux,
and Solaris as well as the x86, IA64, SPARC,
and AMD64 system architectures.  With this
broad base of OS and System Support, the
LSI7102XP-LC is the ideal choice for connecting
your server or workstation to a Fibre Channel
storage network.
