ATTO Technology FC-41EL Manuale Utente

3 ATTO Technology Inc. Celerity FC Host Adapters Installation and Operation Manual

The Celerity FC-41ES is a single-channel host adapter 
providing support for the most demanding application 
requirements. With 4-Gb FC speeds of up to 800 
MB/sec. per channel, the FC-41ES is a cost effective 
connectivity solution for environments requiring 
maximum throughput.
The FC-41ES also takes advantage of the latest in host 
interconnect technology: PCI Express, a serial, high-
speed connection that supports aggregate throughput 
up to 2 GB/sec. (x4 PCIe) full-duplex. The FC-41ES is 
software compatible with existing PCI and PCI-X 
products using the same device drivers as other 
Celerity FC products, simplifying user installation and 
support. It is backward compatible with existing 2-Gb 
and 1-Gb Fibre Channel infrastructure, protecting 
existing technology investments.
